What is a Pronoun?

A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun in a sentence to avoid unnecessary repetition.

Instead of repeating the same noun multiple times, we use a pronoun to make the sentence more natural and easier to read.

Example

Without Pronoun:

Rahim is a good student. Rahim studies every day. Rahim helps his friends.

With Pronoun:

Rahim is a good student. He studies every day. He helps his friends.

The word He replaces the noun Rahim, making the sentence shorter and more fluent.

Basics of Verb

Basics of Verb: The Foundation of Every English Sentence

Learning English grammar becomes much easier when you understand the verb. A verb is one of the most important parts of a sentence because it expresses an action, a state, or an occurrence. Without a verb, a sentence cannot be complete.

Welcome to Shamiul Bhai er Pathshala, where we simplify English grammar for SSC, HSC, university admission candidates, job seekers, and anyone who wants to improve their English communication skills.


What is a Verb?

A verb is a word that tells us what the subject does, what happens, or what the subject is.

Examples:

  • She writes a letter.
  • They play football every evening.
  • The baby is sleeping.
  • I am a student.

In these sentences, writes, play, is sleeping, and am are verbs.


Types of Verbs

1. Action Verb

An action verb shows physical or mental action.

Examples:

  • Rahim runs every morning.
  • She reads English books.
  • We think positively.

2. Linking Verb

A linking verb connects the subject with more information about it.

Common linking verbs:

  • am
  • is
  • are
  • was
  • were
  • become
  • seem
  • look
  • feel

Examples:

  • She is happy.
  • The soup tastes delicious.
  • He became a doctor.

3. Helping (Auxiliary) Verb

Helping verbs assist the main verb to form different tenses, voices, and moods.

Common helping verbs:

  • be (am, is, are, was, were)
  • have (has, have, had)
  • do (do, does, did)
  • will, shall, can, could, may, might, must, should, would

Examples:

  • She is reading a novel.
  • They have finished their homework.
  • I will visit Dhaka tomorrow.

Main Verb vs Helping Verb
