A verb is a 'doing' word - it describes an action.
eg:
running
jumping
being
The name of the verb is called the infinitive, and is always in the form 'to ___'.
eg:
running >> to run
jumping >> to jump
being >> to be
Verbs are then conjugated to give the correct word for the tense (eg present, past, future) and the person/number (eg I, you, we, they)
eg:
To Run
I run, I ran, I will run
you run, you ran, you will run
we run, we ran, we will run
To Jump
I jump, I jumped, I will jump
you jump, you jumped, you will jump
we jump, we jumped, we will jump
To Be
I am, I was, I will be
you are, you were, you will be
we are, we were, we will be
Hope that helps!
