Test: The Verb Special Finite Verbs - 2 - Class 7 MCQ

"play" is a finite verb as it shows subject agreement and time.

Finite verbs are a type of verb that demonstrates agreement with a subject and can be in the present or past tense. One of the key identifying features of finite verbs is that they are the only verb within a sentence or are the central element to the main clause. In contrast to non-finite verbs, which do not exhibit subject-verb agreement and can appear alongside finite verbs within a sentence, finite verbs stand alone as the primary verb in a clause, showing agreement with the subject. While finite verbs can be imperative, that is not the defining characteristic; their pivotal role within a sentence or clause is what distinguishes them. Therefore, option C is the correct choice.
