The verbs are those words that are used to express actions, states, attitudes, conditions, events of nature or existence. For example: Come on, they were, you will run.

There are many types of verbs and several criteria to analyze them according to the person, the number, the mode, the time, among other things.

Within the sentence they constitute the nucleus of the predicate, since they express that action that the subject is executing, and they must coincide in number with it. For example: Director ad measure. ("the director" is the subject, "announced the measure" is the predicate, "announced" is the verbal nucleus of that predicate)
