The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (My feet got wet. feet->wet). A linking verb always has an object of the sentence or phrase.
An action verb does not make the object a form of the subject (Mary came home.). An action verb doesn't always have an object (My feet hurt.).
