action word?
You’re right!
An action word is a word that
suggests an action. In sentences, an action
word explains what the subject is doing or
has done. So, for us to correctly recognize
the action word in a group of words,
sentence or paragraphs, we just ask
ourselves if the word suggests an action or
not. If it suggests an action, then it is an
action word. Let us study the picture below.

examples.html
Is there an action shown in the Yes, Ma’am.
picture? What do the boys do? One is throwing. The other is catching.
Can we consider “throw” and Yes, Ma’am, because these are actions. The
“catch” action words? Why or why not? boys are doing something.
Let us try to study another example.
Which of these is an action word?
phone wash pen Lito
When I mention the action word, do
the action it corresponds. Are you ready? Yes, Ma’am.
Phone. (No action is done.)

their face/body/clothes.)

Why?
Let us proceed with pen. (No action is done.)

word. What do you think does the word
“pen” suggest?
Next is “Lito”. Do the action it (No action is done.)
corresponds.
You’re right! Lito is not an action It is a name of person.
word. It does not suggest an action. What
does it suggest then?
Very good! Now, let us read more
examples of action words.

words? Again, what is an action word? It is a word that tells an action.
How do we recognize action words? We examine if the work tells us to do
something. If it does, then it is an action
word.
Very good!
