What is a verb?The answer to this question can be found in textbooks, special directories.
In most languages the verb is completely independent part of speech.In Russian, he usually answers the questions (in the infinitive) what to do?what to do? verbs have forms of the type, collateral, those of gender, number, mood and vremeni.Glagol can express action (Bagan), the state (to have fun), the ratio of (worship), property (cool).
lexical-semantic category of verbs are different in different languages.For example, in Russian there is a view of the verb (two of them: the perfect (read) and imperfect (read)), and in Semitic (eg Maltese) - breed (causative, intensity, etc.) or static-dynamic.
consider some forms of Russian verbs.
One of the important indicators of a transitional intransitive verb.What is the verb is transitive?This verb, which is able to be combined with nouns, standing in the accusative without a preposition.Verbs see, draw, sing transition will be, because they are able to form phrases such nouns.Singing (What?) A song, draw (What?) Picture to see (Who?) Relative to see (what?) Phenomenon.These verbs imprint action for passing.
Note that transitive verbs can also create phrases with nouns or pronouns in the genitive case.For example, not found (Why?) Bread, did not see (Who?) Brother, cut off (what?) Cheese.The latter phrase refers to a part of a noun.
intransitive verb to create such phrases can not.Exit - intransitive verb.
If a noun has no excuse, is in the accusative case, but not an object, the verb that goes with it, is not a transient.For example: to hold an hour.
In Russian there is reflexive verbs and sunk.
What is the verb return?It is the word for the action and having postfix-Xia (-s).For example: to wash, dress up.
values reflexive verbs are different.The words of this category may indicate:
- own return action, the object of which is the subject of his own.Examples: dress up, gather, gorge.
- Cross-return action.He performed several actors who are also the subject of this action.Examples: kissing, hugging, fighting.
- actions that are typical of the subject, but has no object.Dog bites a cow butting.
- condition of the subject, which is not dependent on the object or subject.Be happy, sad, tense, upset.
- Indirectly-reflexive action that takes place in their own interests.Examples developed (= build a house), get out (= make cleaning).
- action that can have a subject (impersonal).Examples: I can not sleep, it is not working.
Reflexive verbs can form a pair with unrecoverable.For example, work-work, wash, wash.
Sometimes (rarely) and return sunk synonymous verbs can form a pair.This is possible only in one sense of ambiguous words.For example, the word "knock" and "knocking" will have the same meaning only in the sense of "let ask."The meaning of "knock - convey" a pair of verbs do not form.
some reflexive verbs do not form a pair with unrecoverable.Example: hope, pride, need.
Usually these verbs formed from nouns or adjectives (proud - proud of need - need).Typically, such derivation enough postfix-Xia, but sometimes for the formation of a new verb it is joined by the prefix: bankrupt - bankrupt.
What verb non-return?If you say quite simply, it's a verb that does not have a postfix-Xia (-s).Examples: flying, walking and so on.
