Action verbs show action and create "active sentences". An active sentence usually has a subject + action verb.

Stacey ARGUED with Lillian Jean over who would get the most points in today's game.
Charles and Marcie TACKLED the couch.
Miguel HONORED Thorpe's greatness.
Passive sentences have verbs with a form of "be", which are: is, was, were, has, have, been. Passive sentences often contain the word "by" and the subject is stuck at the end as an object, and they are often much longer than active sentences.

∙ 12y agoAny verb which is not a form of "to be" is an "action verb".
Verbs which are not action verbs include: am, are, is, was, were, been, and being.
In the sentences, "Jack and Jill are dancing," and "Jack and Jill went up the hill," both "went" and "dancing" are action verbs, while the verb "are" in the first sentence is not an action verb.
