§Grammar and usage
Types of verbs include main or principal verbs ('eat', 'write'), auxiliary or helping verbs ('be', 'have', 'do'), modal verbs ('can', 'may', 'must', 'should'), transitive verbs (with an object: 'She reads a book'), intransitive verbs (without an object: 'He sleeps'), regular verbs (past with -ed: 'walked') and irregular verbs ('go, went, gone'); stative verbs (know, like, want) are not usually used in continuous tenses.
यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: verbs के प्रकारों में main या principal verbs ('eat', 'write'), auxiliary या helping verbs ('be', 'have', 'do', सहायक), modal verbs ('can', 'may', 'must', 'should'), transitive verbs (object के साथ: 'She reads a book', सकर्मक), intransitive verbs (बिना object: 'He sleeps', अकर्मक), regular verbs (past में -ed: 'walked') और irregular verbs ('go, went, gone') शामिल हैं; stative verbs (know, like, want) प्रायः continuous tenses में प्रयुक्त नहीं होते।
A singular subject takes a singular verb.
Subject-verb agreement में singular subject singular verb लेता है।
