I like swimming and cycling in my free time. I miss moving now because of my parental leave. It's uneasy and sometimes even unrealistic to go to a swimming pool with my twins who are 10 months old.
I used to do Taekwondo. So I like to kick and stretch a lot. Now, I'm going to a fitness gym where I usually run on a treadmill or cycle using either an elliptical machine or stationary bicycle. I also do strength training.
I go walking once a week every sunday. It's very fun and interesting. It's also make me more relax and reduce stress. Usually, I go walking with my brother and father. We were walking around my village
My favorite sport is basketball. In this sport, I catch the ball from my teammates, then I run quickly towards the upper basket. Finally I jump in the air and throw the ball into the basket to score.
Hi Sir,
How 'Watching tv" is an action verb?
Since we use our 'sense of sight' that's why it is an action verb? Or some different reason?
Are our five senses indicates action verb??
Verbs of perception are often stative: hear, see, smell, taste, feel.
However, we can also choose to use our senses in an active way. Watch is different from see because we choose to watch, while seeing is something that happens without an active decision.
Sometimmes the dynamic and stative verbs for these areas are different and sometimes the same verb is used:
My favorite sport is badminton, when playing I will use one hand usually the left hand to throw shuttlecock into the air and use another hand (right hand) that hold the racket to catch and kick it to transmit to the other side
I admit that I don't practice any sport activity at this time. When I was younger I did a lot of rugby, so I had to catch, throw and kick the ball and of course also to run. I know cycle and swim, not very well but that is ok. I am very bad to skate. I try 3 times I think and I wasn't really confident.
I don't practice any sport actually, but I like swimming and walking. I think that the sport is important in the life for health. If I had more time , I would try to practice some sport.
I'm really not into sports.Cause I reckon it really took it out of me but now I need to love doing the swimming.
