An action verb can express something that a person, animal or object can do. To determine if a word is an action verb, look at the sentence and ask yourself if the word is decribing something someone can do or something someone can be or feel. If it is something they can do, then it is an action verb. If its something they can be or feel, it is a non-action, or stative, verb.
