Asked by Paige

What is the action verb and linking verb in this sentence:
The day was warm and sunny.
Answered by Writeacher
The linking verb is "are." There is no action verb. There is no <b>action</b> in that sentence!
Answered by Emily
I thought "was" is considered a verb? (are verbs and actions the same?)
Answered by Ms. Sue
Some verbs show action -- like <u>jump, think, run, believe, drive, chase</u>. Other verbs express state of being -- as the underlined verbs in these sentences.

I <u>am</u> a teacher.
Joe <u>is</u> cool.
My sisters <u>are</u> Brenda and Teresa.
The day <u>was</u> warm and sunny.
