What is the helping and main verb in my class will write reports about its sports legend?
An easy way to remember helping verbs is to think "they have many friends". What that means is how helping verbs hang out with many, many verbs. But those regular verbs only do one thing. For examples:write only writesrun only runsread only readsAny 'extra' verb beside those "do one thing" verbs must be helping verbs. Plus, another clue is you know you saw "will" hanging around other verbs before. And you know helping verbs come first. So in "will write", you know that 'will' just helps, while 'write' just writes.
What are the semantic classes of English verbs?
Verb semantic classes are then constructed from verbs, modulo exceptions, which undergo a certain number of alternations. From this classification, a set of verb semantic classes is organized. We have, for example, the classes of verbs of putting, which include Put verbs, Funnel Verbs, Verbs of putting in a specified direction, Pour verbs, Coil verbs, etc. Other sets of classes include Verbs of removing, Verbs of Carrying and Sending, Verbs of Throwing, Hold and Keep verbs, Verbs of contact by impact, Image creation verbs, Verbs of creation and transformation, Verbs with predicative complements, Verbs of perception, Verbs of desire, Verbs of communication, Verbs of social interaction, etc. As can be noticed, these classes only partially overlap with the classification adopted in WordNet. This is not surprising since the classification criteria are very different.
