Linking verbs are verbs that do not express actions, but conditions or states, such as all forms of the verb "to be," and the verbs "to become" and "to seem." <u>Their function is to connect the subject of a sentence to a word that identifies or describe the subject.</u> Take a look at the following examples:

William <u>is</u> excited about his promotion.

<em>The linking verb "is" connects the subject "William" to the word or adjective "excited" which describes the subject. </em>

The winter scene <u>was</u> mysterious.

<em>The verb to be "was" links the subject "the winter scene" to a word that describes it: "mysterious."</em>

She <u>seems</u> sad

<em>The verb "seems" links the subject "see" to the adjective "sad."</em>
