Help with verbss!!!?

Question

Linking verbs, helping verbs, and action verbs...

What are they and how are they different...I do not understand =\

Answer 1

Verb Classification
We divide verbs into two broad classifications:

1. Helping Verbs
Imagine that a stranger walks into your room and says:

I can.
People must.
The Earth will.
Do you understand anything? Has this person communicated anything to you? Probably not! That's because these verbs are helping verbs and have no meaning on their own. They are necessary for the grammatical structure of the sentence, but they do not tell us very much alone. We usually use helping verbs with main verbs. They "help" the main verb. (The sentences in the above examples are therefore incomplete. They need at least a main verb to complete them.) There are only about 15 helping verbs.

2. Main Verbs
Now imagine that the same stranger walks into your room and says:

I teach.
People eat.
The Earth rotates.
Do you understand something? Has this person communicated something to you? Probably yes! Not a lot, but something. That's because these verbs are main verbs and have meaning on their own. They tell us something. Of course, there are thousands of main verbs.

Answer 2

Helping verbs: Am, Is, Are, Was, Were, Be, Being, Been, Can, Could, Shall, Should, May, Might, Must, Will, Would, Have, Has, Had, Does, Do, Did.

Action Verbs: Ran. Jump. Fell. something you can do.

Linking Verbs: um.. i think the is one?? i can't remember, i learned it last year in 8th grade.

Answer 3

Linking verbs are verbs that you can't physically do, but which are necessary sometimes in sentences. They indicate a state of being such as be, seem, or look.
I am tall. He seems ill. She looks beautiful.
They don't indicate actual action.
Action verbs are often called doing verbs.
He voted for Bush.
I ran to the store.
She fell down.
Helping verbs are verbs sometimes necessary to indicate tense, mood, etc.
He would have voted for you, but he was sick.
The simple verb is voted, with helping verbs would have.
She will have chosen the committee by five o'clock.
Chosen is the simple or main verb, will have are helping verbs.
