Copular verbs, or linking verbs, link the adjective that follows with the subject (noun,
pronouns, etc) of the sentence. So instead of ‘saying something more’ about the verb,
the adjective that is used describes the subject (it complements the subject).
The most common copular verb in English is be. Other common copular verbs in
English are appear, become, feel, get, grow, look, prove, remain, resemble, seem,
smell, sound, stay, taste, and turn.
