Inchoative verb

An inchoative verb is like when you start doing something. Imagine you're playing with your toys, and then you suddenly decide to start building a tower out of blocks. The word "start" is like an inchoative verb because it shows when you began to do the new thing. Inchoative verbs are words that show when an action begins or changes. They tell us when something started happening or when something changed into a new state. So next time you start doing something new, just remember that you're using an inchoative verb!
