A linking verb is followed by an object that restates the subject of the sentence in some way. Example:
Katy is my cousin. (Katy = cousin) The sky became overcast. (sky -> overcast)
An action verb tells that action of the subject and can have a direct object, both a direct and indirect object, or no object at all. Examples:
John bought a new car. (bought is the act, car is the direct object)
John gave his wife a new car. (gave is the act, car is the direct object, wife is the indirect object)
Jane sings beautifully. (sings is the act, there is no object; beautifully is an adverb that modifies the verb sings)
