What are Stative Verbs?

Stative verbs are special verbs that describe a state or condition rather than an action. They show feelings, thoughts, senses, or relationships. Examples include "know," "believe," "love," and "seem." In English, we use stative verbs differently than action verbs.

Usage in Written and Spoken English

In both written and spoken English, stative verbs are often used in simple tenses. For example, we say "I love chocolate" instead of "I am loving chocolate." This is because love is a state, not an action.
