State / Action verbs
Some verbs can be used in simple tenses and continuous tenses. These are called action verbs:
Susan normally works in Europe, but this week she’s working in South America.
Some verbs can never be used in continuous tenses. These are called state verbs:
I love tea.
(not I’m loving tea.)
Mixed verbs
Sometimes a verb can have a state or action version, depending on its different meanings. When this happens, we call that a mixed verb.
For example, HAVE can mean POSSESS, this is a state verb:
I have a blue car.
HAVE can also mean CONSUME, this is an action verb:
I am having a steak.
Read the pairs of sentences and decide which ones sound correct. Sometimes you will have to choose both.
