the dinner tastes good.
dinner- subject
tastes- action verb
please helppp
Since "good" describes "dinner," then "tastes" is a linking verb.
oh duh! thanks(:
Actually, in the sentence "The dinner tastes good," "dinner" is the subject and "tastes" is not an action verb. "Tastes" is a linking verb, also known as a copula verb, which connects the subject "dinner" to the adjective "good." The linking verb describes a state or condition of the subject rather than an action performed by the subject.
To determine the subject and verb in a sentence, you can follow these steps:
1. Identify the main verb: In this case, the main verb is "tastes."
2. Ask the question "Who or what + the verb?" In this sentence, "What tastes?" The answer is "dinner," so it is the subject of the sentence.
To identify the verb, you should ask "What is the action or state being described?" In this sentence, "tastes" describes the state of the dinner, indicating how it is perceived.
It's important to note that not all sentences have action verbs. Some sentences, like this one, have linking verbs that connect the subject to a complement (in this case, the adjective "good").
