Using this verb in a sentence

• A verb shows an action or a state, and its form changes with the subject and the tense: he works, she worked, they have worked.
• After can, will, must, should and might the verb never changes form — it stays in the V1 base form.
• A linking verb (is, seems, become) takes a description instead of an object: She seems tired, not She seems a tired.
• Check the verb forms table on this portal for the full V1 / V2 / V3 / -ing / -s set before you use it in a tense.

Where this word sits in the grammar

Verbs (beginner level)

Every complete sentence needs a finite verb. Choose the correct verb form to match the subject and the tense.

The rules in short

• 1. Action verbs: run, write, eat.
• 2. State verbs: be, seem, know, love.
• 3. Main verbs carry meaning; helping (auxiliary) verbs form tenses: be, have, do, will.
• 4. Verbs change form for tense: go → went → gone.
• 5. Third-person singular adds -s in present simple: He goes.

Examples from that topic

• She writes a letter every day. — वह हर दिन पत्र लिखती है।
• He has finished his work. — उसने अपना काम खत्म कर लिया है।
