    REMEMBER:

    Verbs that describe states are


    NOT normally used in
    continuous forms.
    Remember ….
    Stative verbs are usually used in the simple tenses. Normally they are not used
    with continuous tenses.
    Stative verbs are primarily used to describe a state of being (I am) or situation
    (I have). It's how something is, feels, or appears. These verbs don't show physical
    action (I run) or processes (It prints). Stative verbs can describe a mental or
    emotional state of being (I doubt) as well as a physical state (Kilroy was here).
