Kinds of Verbs English has two main kinds of verbs: normal verbs (called lexical verbs) and auxiliary verbs. The difference between them is mainly in where they can go in a sentence. Some verbs are in both groups, but there are very few auxiliary verbs in English. There are also two kinds of auxiliary verbs: modal verbs and non-modal verbs. The table below shows most of the English auxiliaries and a small number of other verbs. Kinds of English verbs auxiliary verbs lexical vebs modal verbs Can you play the piano? I fell I will not be there I didn't fall Shall we go I had breakfast. Yes, you may I'm playing soccer. You must be joking Must you make that noise? non-modal verbs Have you seen him? Have you seen him? I did see it I did see it He is sleeping He is sleeping Auxiliary verbs also inflect for negation. Usually this is done by adding n't.[1] You shouldn't be here. He isn't at home. We haven't started yet.

Transitive - can be followed by another verb in the same sentence eg. i LOVE to swim

Intransitive - can not be followed by another verb in the same sentence Eg. Sam slept.

Hope this helps.
