Verb Root
The verb root (or basic form) is the form listed in a
dictionary. It is the same as the infinitive (i.e.,
the version with
the word "to", e.g., "to walk") but does not include the
word "to".
Examples:
 see, be,
sing, play, concur
| I
need to see a butterfly
before I go home. Cath has seen two. [show
me the verb root] |
