"Express" refers to the act of conveying thoughts, feelings, or ideas through words, gestures, or other forms of communication. In the context of an action, it indicates actively demonstrating or performing something. As a condition, it can imply the current state of being or emotional state that is being communicated. Ultimately, it encapsulates the way we articulate our experiences and interactions with others.
Two types of verbs that do not express an action are state verbs and linking verbs. State verbs describe a state of being or condition, such as "know," "believe," or "love." Linking verbs, such as "is," "are," or "seem," connect the subject of a sentence to a subject complement, often describing a state of being or condition rather than an action.
When a verb does not express action, it is no longer a verb. I cannot think of any examples of what you are saying.

Adverbs modify words that express actions (verbs), conditions, or states of being (linking verbs). They provide additional information about how, when, where, or to what extent an action occurs. For example, in the sentence "She runs quickly," the adverb "quickly" modifies the verb "runs" by describing the manner of the action.
No, "sick" is not an action verb; it is an adjective that describes a state or condition, typically relating to illness. Action verbs express actions or states of being, such as "run," "jump," or "think." In contrast, "sick" characterizes a subject rather than indicating an action they are performing.
'Explain' is a verb. Verbs are words that express an action or a state of being.
State verbs express a state not an action.For example be, know, love, believe. If you write - I know you - then this verb is not showing an action but a state.Or with a be verb - I am happy - the verb am is not showing an action but a state.State verbs are not usually used in the continuous form - I am loving it
Identify the action or state of being in a sentence, that is the verb. It's usually the word that shows what the subject is doing or the condition it is in. Look for words that express an action (like run, think, eat) or a state of being (like is, were, seem).
"Run" is an example of a verb. Verbs are words that express action, occurrence, or state of being.
What do you call a word that indicates the action is being done by for or to the antecedent?
