Verbs

A verb names an action. Actions are things that people, places, or things do. 


  PEOPLE: Jill ran down the road.

  PLACES: Idaho grows a lot of potatoes.

  THINGS: The rock rolled down the mountain.
Actions sometimes don't seem to be physically active. Take these verbs for example: 

	think	sleep	sit	wait	watch

	rest	stare	freeze	stand	stop
For example: 

	They stop at the stop sign.

	The cars wait at the intersection.

	Joe's friends watch the movie with him.
