The cat walked slowly. (past tense form)
The subject is "my cat" and there is no action verb. The linking verb is "is" (to be).

I take this question to mean: what do you call that part of a sentence which receives the action of the verb? If the sentence is in the active voice, it is the object that receives the action of the verb: 'My mother was stroking her cat' ('her cat' is the object of the verb 'was stroking', and is also the recipient of the action of stroking). If the sentence is in the passive voice, it is the subject that receives the action of the verb: 'The cat was being stroked by my mother' ('the cat' is the subject of the verb 'was being stroked', and is also the recipient of the action of stroking).
No. If you put the word in a simple sentence you can see it is not a verb eg The dog irates the cat. = not correct so it is not a verb. The dog irritates the cat. = correct. I am irate. = a correct sentence. Irate is an adjective. The "verb of irate" is "generate ire" or "cause ire" or "bring about ire".
It can have a two part verb but it doesn't have to.In an active sentence we can see who or what does the action of the verb:The cat chased the mouse. -- cat is the subject, chased is the verb and mouse is the object. The cat does the action, chase.In this next sentence we don't know who or what does the action:The mouse was chased. -- was chased is the verb.This sentence is a passive sentence.Here is an active sentence with a two part verb:I picked up my son from school.here is the same sentence in passive tense:My son was picked late yesterday.
The subject is "my cat" and there is no action verb. The linking verb is "is" (to be).
Sleeps is the verb Cat is the subject
"The cat purred." is a sentence because it has a subject, which is the cat and a verb which is purred. A sentence fragment has either a missing subject, a missing verb, or both.
A noun is either a person, place, or thing, and the verb is an action.Lets use this simple sentence as an example:The cat chases the mice.The nouns in this sentence are 'cat' and 'mice'.The verb in this sentence is 'chases'.When trying to find the verb, take the first noun and ask yourself "what is it doing"?For example: "What is the cat doing?".The answer is: The cat chases.
Yes, it is possible to have a sentence with a verb and without a helping verb. For example, "He runs every day" is a sentence that contains the verb "runs" without a helping verb.
In this sentence the subject and verb agree.Because the verb phrase is can run then run is the correct form.If there was no auxiliary verb then the sentence would be:The cat runs fast when ................With can the form is always can + base form of verb.
In this sentence the word have is a verb. This is taught in English.
I take this question to mean: what do you call that part of a sentence which receives the action of the verb? If the sentence is in the active voice, it is the object that receives the action of the verb: 'My mother was stroking her cat' ('her cat' is the object of the verb 'was stroking', and is also the recipient of the action of stroking). If the sentence is in the passive voice, it is the subject that receives the action of the verb: 'The cat was being stroked by my mother' ('the cat' is the subject of the verb 'was being stroked', and is also the recipient of the action of stroking).
The dog GROWLED at the cat.
The verb in the sentence is scratch.Verbs are actions or "doing" words. To scratch something is an action.
The verb is "were" and the subject is "a gray cat and a stripe [sic] kitten"; the simple subject is "cat ... and ... kitten".
"an X-rayed cat" doesn't have a verb in it, so before thinking about anything else, it can't be a sentence.
