Answer 2

Explanation:

Question:-

I offered the old man a seat.

Which of the following is the verb ?

• Offered

• Old man

• Seat

• The

Answer:-

The correct answer is :- Offered

Reason:-

• Why "offered" is the correct option ?

:- Offered is considered as the verb of the sentence because the verb originally does the work of denoting the action happening in the sentence. As the word "offered" is doing the same work as the verb by denoting that "the old man is offered help by the speaker",it is considered as a verb.

That's why this option is correct.

• Why "old man" is not correct option ?

:- Old man is the second person or listener in the sentence. It is not doing the work of the verb as it only refers to the old person,not describing any action work.

That's why this option is incorrect.

• Why "seat" is not correct option ?

:- Seat is the object that is written in the sentence. "Seat" is referred here as a minor thing which is offered by the speaker to the old man. However,it is not doing the work of the verb (describing the action/work done in the sentence).

That's why this option is incorrect.

• Why "the" is not correct option ?

:- The is the article that us simply used in this sentence in order to describe "old man" more clearly. However,it is not doing the work of a verb (depicting action word) in the sentence.

That's why this option is incorrect.

★More to know

A verb is the word in the sentence that has been accompanied by a main verb (is,are,was,were) and it mainly describes the action/doing word in the sentences. All the activities happening in the sentence are described by "verb".

For example:-

• He is going to school.

• They are having lunch now.
