Default The Differences Among Verbs...
I've been reading English Grammar books and sometimes I'm confused because different authors use different terminologies. Though I've somewhat tried to clarify it myself, I need help with this: What are the differencies among LINKING VERBS, HELPING VERBS, BE VERBS, COPULATIVE VERBS, AUXILLIARY VERBS, and MODAL VERBS?

Your help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks a lot...
