In another word, Doing words are known as verbs.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Example :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Harish <strong>laughs<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>The camel is <strong>dead<\/strong>.<br \/>\nIn the above examples the words in bolds are all verbs. They are conveying that something is being done or has been done to the Nouns associated with them in the sentence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Classification of Verbs : Verbs can be further classified into different categories.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0088ff;\"><br \/>\n1. Transitive verbs &#8211; The verbs that denote an action which passes over from the doer or subject in the sentence to the object are called transitive verbs.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Example :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The boy <strong>hits<\/strong> the ball<\/li>\n<li>Rajiv <strong>pushed<\/strong> the door.<br \/>\nIn the above examples number (i) the action <strong>hits <\/strong>passes over from the doer (the boy) to the object (the ball). Thus the verb is a transitive verb. Same is the case with the verb in the second example ie doer Rajiv <strong>pushed<\/strong> the door.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0088ff;\"><br \/>\n2. Intransitive Verbs &#8211; The verbs that denote an action which does not pass over from the doer or subject in the sentence to the object are called intransitive verbs.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Example :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The boy <strong>laughs<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Rajiv <strong>sleeps<\/strong> soundly.<br \/>\nIn the above examples number (i) the action <strong>laughs <\/strong>stops to the doer (the boy) .Thus the verb is an intransitive verb. Same is the case with the verb in the second example i.e doer Rajiv <strong>sleeps<\/strong> soundly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0088ff;\"><br \/>\nNotes :<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n1. .In real sense most of the verbs can be used both as Transitive and Intransitive verbs thereby making the distinction a bit vague. Therefore it is prudent to say that a particular verb is used transitively or intransitively rather than that it is Transitive or Intransitive. Following example will make it clear to you.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The snakes <strong>fought<\/strong> the eagles.<\/li>\n<li>Some snakes <strong>fight<\/strong> fiercely.<br \/>\nIn the above example verb fight\/fought is being used as transitive in the first sentence and as intransitive in the second sentence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>2. Some verbs like come, go, fall, die denotes action which cannot be done to anything else thus they can never be used in transitive form.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rakesh <strong>fell<\/strong> down.<\/li>\n<li>Sudha <strong>died<\/strong> in an accident.<br \/>\nThe verbs given in the above examples cannot be used in intransitive form at all.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0088ff;\"><br \/>\nForms of Verbs<\/span><\/strong> : There are three forms of verb commonly known as <strong>first<\/strong>, <strong>second<\/strong> and <strong>third<\/strong> form and literally known as <strong>Base &#8211; Past &#8211; Past participle.<br \/>\n<\/strong>E.g Walk &#8211; Walked &#8211; walked<br \/>\nSit &#8211; Sat &#8211; Sat<\/p>\n<p>On the basis of forms, the Verbs can be further classified in <strong>two<\/strong> different categories:<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0088ff;\"><br \/>\n1. Regular Verbs &#8211; Those verbs that form their past and past participle by adding \u2013ed- are known as regular verbs.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">E.g.
