A noun is a word for a person, a place, or a thing.

A verb is a word for an action or a state of being.

A noun functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause, or the object of a verb or a preposition.

A verb tells what the subject of a sentence is or does.

An abstract noun is a word for a thing that can't be experienced by any of the five physical senses; something that can't be seen, heard, smelled, tasted, or touched.

An action verb is a word that expresses physical or mental activity.

Example: My offer for the car was accepted.

  • The noun 'offer' is an abstract noun, a word for a concept.
  • The noun 'offer' is the subject of the sentence.
  • The noun 'car' is a concrete noun, a word for a physical thing.
  • The verb 'was accepted', an action verb, a word for the action taken by the person(s) to whom the offer was made.
