Ariannita uses everyday examples to introduce twenty English verbs and show how verbs function in sentences. She begins with the basic idea that a verb can describe an action, an occurrence, or a state. In ‘I love English,’ for example, ‘love’ is the verb, while ‘I’ and ‘English’ have different roles in the sentence. The video then moves from this grammar starting point into a broad set of verbs connected with daily life, preferences, movement, and interaction.
Examples include ‘fall’ for moving down to the ground, ‘walk’ for taking a dog outside, ‘smell’ for noticing or describing an odor, and ‘sell’ for exchanging something for money. Ariannita uses phrases such as ‘smells like roses’ and ‘always packed’ to show how a verb appears with other words in a real sentence. She also talks about ‘drink,’ ‘study,’ and ‘jump,’ including ‘almost fell’ to contrast coming close to an event with actually completing it.
Other examples focus on feelings and experiences: ‘love,’ ‘laugh,’ and ‘have.’ ‘Laugh until I cry’ emphasizes laughing very hard, while ‘have a stomachache’ describes an experience or condition. ‘Remember’ appears in the useful contrast ‘remembered to lock my car,’ which means the speaker did not forget to do the task. The video also includes ‘throw’ in ‘throw away’ and ‘throw a party,’ where the same verb forms different expressions; ‘ride’ in a conversation about getting a ride; and ‘owe’ in ‘owe my friend a favor.’
Near the end, Ariannita explains active verbs as describing actions and stative verbs as describing a state or feeling, while using ‘push,’ ‘pull,’ and ‘give’ in practical examples. The lesson is a quick vocabulary tour rather than a full grammar reference, and many verbs take different meanings in different combinations. Learners can choose a few verbs and make their own sentences about familiar situations, paying attention to the words that follow each verb. This helps connect a verb’s meaning to its natural pattern instead of memorizing it in isolation.
