Action Verbs

Action verbs express action and are the most common verbs.

Action verbs need s at the end with third-person, singular subjects.

• It floats on the sea.

Negative sentences need do not, does not, or did not.

• I do not eat bread.
• He does not eat bread.

• It does not float on the sea.

Interrogative sentences begin with do, does, or did.

• Do you eat bread?
• Does he eat bread?
• Does she walk to the station?
• Did they finish it?

Do not can be shortened to don't, does not to doesn't, and did not to didn't.
