Derived verbs are verbs that are formed by adding affixes (prefixes or suffixes) to a base verb or noun. These affixes change the meaning or grammatical function of the base word. Examples include adding the prefix "re-" to "do" to form "redo" or the suffix "-en" to "dark" to form "darken."
Some examples of derived verbs in a sentence are: "She courageously faced the challenge." Here, "courageously" is the adverb form derived from the adjective "courageous." "He darkened the room by closing the curtains." In this sentence, "darkened" is the verb form derived from the adjective "dark." "She quickly walked to the bus stop." In this sentence, "quickly" is the adverb form derived from the adjective "quick."
