ГЛАГОЛ — VERB

Глагол (Verb) — часть речи, обозначающая действие или состояние. По своему значению и функции в предложении глаголы бывают смыс- ловые (notional — имеют самостоятельное значение, употребляются в предложении в роли простого глагольного сказуемого), вспомогатель- ные (auxiliary — служат для образования сложных глагольных форм), глаголы-связки (linking verbs — служат для образования составного именного сказуемого) и модальные глаголы (modal verbs — употре- бляются с инфинитивом, выражают возможность, способность и т. д.).

Формы английского глагола делятся на личные (finite forms) и не- личные (non-finite forms). Личные формы глагола — все видовремен- ные формы, формы наклонения, залога. В предложении они служат ска- зуемым, употребляются при наличии подлежащего, с которым согласу- ются в лице и числе:

He w as intr oduced t o my cousin.

W e usually send them a pos tcar d at Christmas.
