None. Verbs do not describe nouns--adjectives do. There are NO descriptive verbs.

There aren't any. A word that describes a noun like the ocean is an ADJECTIVE.
However, there are lots of verbs that could be used to discuss the ACTION of the ocean, such as
undulate
roil
churn
stretch (as in across wide distances)
erode
float
dissolve
splash
murmur
Good luck learning about parts of speech!

Verbs are "doing" words, so what sort of things does an ocean do?
It flows, it waves and crashes, it can scintilate, it can provide, it can take, it mystifies it rises and falls it covers it scares and it swells.
Try to think of some for yourself though!

Adjectives are used to describe (not adverbs).
The ocean: wide, salty, blue, rocky, murky, fishy, vast. Look up adjectives on the web and you will find lists.
Verbs answer who, when, where, why, how, or under what conditions something has happened.

Adjectives describe, not verbs.
