Pengertian Stative Verb
Stative verb atau bisa disebut sebagai non-action verb adalah sebuah kata kerja yang menunjukkan/menyatakan keadaan atau kondisi bukan untuk menyatakan aksi/tindakan. Stative verb juga tidak bisa ditambahkan dengan imbuhan -ing artinya stative verb tidak bisa digunakan pada Continuous Tense.
Mengapa tidak bisa menggunakan Continuous Tense? Karena pada dasarnya Stative Verb adalah kata kerja yang digunakan untuk mendeskripsikan kondisi dimana kondisi tersebut tidak berubah (berlangsung lama). Sedangkan Continuous Tense sendiri adalah sebuah kalimat dimana menunjukkan adanya proses.
