Action and linking verb?
An action verb is an action which is done whether it's mental, or a visable action that was done. For example walk would be an action verb because someone's doing something. Remember would also be an action verb because someone is doing a mental action. A linking verb links the subject to another word in the predicate. Sentences are split into two parts the complete subject and the complete predicate. All of the words that are the subjects or relate to the subjects are in the complete subject. All of the words that are the verb, or relate to the verb are the complete predicate. Any form of to be, as a main verb, is always a linking verb because it's always linking the subject to a word. The words that are linked to the subject are called subject complements. The three types of subject complements are predicate nouns(nouns that link to the subject), predicate prounouns(pronouns that link to the subject), or predicate adjectives(adjectives that link to the subject). If you can replace the main verb with a form of to be then it's probably a linking verb. Look at your subject, and see if it can be linked to any words(subject complements). That should be able to tell you if it's an action verb or a linking verb. If the main verb links the subject to another word then it's a linking verb. If the main verb doesn't link the subject, and it's an action then it's probably an action verb.
