Setiap kali belajar suatu linguistik, verb merupakan unsur paling penting. Nah kali ini mimin akan mengulas seputar contoh kata kerja dalam bahasa inggris.
Dapat diartikan bahwa verb merupakan kata khusus yang menjelaskan suatu tindakan, perbuatan, dan aktivitas tertentu. Ini bisa dilakukan oleh siapapun baik itu manusia, hewan, dan mesin. Misalnya; The airplane flies at 8 AM. Jadi contoh kata kerja “terbang” disematkan pada pesawat tergbang sebagai sebuah benda mati.
- transitive: selalu melekat dengan objek,
- intransitive: tidak memerlukan objek.
- Sebagai konsekuensinya tidak dapat diubah ke dalam bentuk pasif.
Secara umum setiap contoh kata kerja bahasa inggris memiliki kesamaan bentuk dengan versi indonesia.
Contoh kata modal: Can, may, must, shall, will
Ada pun penggunaan modal berdasarkan tujuannya
Dalam membedakan intransitif dan transitif, sebenarnya bisa ditelusuri dari artinya. Sobat bisa langsung memberikan kesimpulan kata tertentu itu tidak harus memiliki objek. Ini berlaku baik di konteks bahasa indonesia maupun inggris.
Ketika masuk dalam tense, kata kerja bahasa inggris akan berubah mengikuti tensenya.
Yah pasti sobat udah ngerti bahwa bahasa inggris berbeda sekali dengan bentuk verb dalam bahasa indonesia.
Mari kita masuk ke beberapa contoh verb. Seperti telah dijelaskan, ada dua kelompok utama kata kerja yaitu transitif dan intransitif.
