is have a lv?
A "lv"? "have" is a verb.
linking verb
Ah, I see. Please spell these things out! :) No, it is a transitive verb that has a direct object. "She has a nice disposition." A linking verb is intransitive with no direct object. "She is nice."
uh? Don't understand.
Ah, I see. Please spell these things out! :) No, it is a transitive verb that has a direct object. "She has a nice disposition." A linking verb is intransitive with no direct object. "She is nice." "is" is a linking verb, but "has" must have a direct object.
A linking verb has no direct object. "have" or "has" must have a direct object. You have something! A car, an iPhone...SOMETHING. So it is not a linking verb.
Yes, it is a verb, but not a LINKING verb. A linking verb has no direct object. Another example: "The eagle flew over the mountain." "flew" has no direct object, so is a linking verb. "over the mountain" is an adverb phrase, not a direct object. In this case, "flew" is a linking verb. "Have" must have a direct object, as I said above.
is there a action in the sentence?
