Answer 3

Verbs don't describe, they show an action or state. One can play music, listen to music, compose music, like music, or even hate music.

Answer 4

No, the word music is a noun, a common, concrete, uncountable noun; a word for sounds made by instruments or voice; a word for a thing.

This response, while technically "correct," also betrays the inherent bias of a cultural perspective that commodifies and objectifies the organized sounds we call music by separating them from composers and performers. For many peoples in the world, activities that involve production and performance of organized sounds imply an action, specifically an action that intends others. Classifying music as noun serves only to rigidify thinking about music as an object, which is itself an artificial objectification of an otherwise active process.

Answer 5

Verbs are not describing words. The word singing is the present participle of the verb to sing. Adverbs are the words that describe a verb, for example:

• Mother was quietly singing as she washed the dishes. (the adverb 'quietly' describes the verb singing)

The present participle of the verb is also an adjective, a word that describes a noun, for example:

• A singing bird was just outside my window. (the adjective 'singing' describes the noun bird)

The present participle of the verb is also a gerund, a verbal noun, for example:

• The loud singing told me that father was working on his car. (the adjective 'loud' describes the noun singing)
