Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. Mends - TV
2. Was - LV (this one's the main verb, i think)
3. Answered - TV
4. Appears - IV
5. Looks - IV
6. Built - TV
7. Visited - TV
8. Listened - IV
9. Are - LV
10. Talks - IV
For Transitive Verbs (TV), there is an object that receives the action. For Intransitive Verbs (IV) naman, there is none---no object that receives the action.
The 5 basic Linking Verbs (LV) are: am, is, are, was, and were.
