狀態動詞

在英文中，那些有進行式ing 形式，看得見動作正在進行，並持續進行一段時間的動詞，稱為動態動詞，例如 : watch/ watching, play/ playing, eat/eating, read/reading, work/working, speak/speaking, cook/cooking等。

但，並不是所有的動詞都有ing的形式，有些動詞表達的是一個狀態，只是存在於意念、思想、概念、感受與情緒當中，看不見實際發生的動作，就不能有ing的說法，這些動詞稱為非動態動詞、亦稱為狀態動詞，例如 : know / understand / believe / realize / recognize / prefer / agree / want / need / seem / own / belong
