Hey, welcome back to build winning courses. This is step three, lesson five, recognizing the power of the verb. verbs are so powerful and we so often miss out on what they can really show us. Take a look at the worksheet for example, you can see up at the top, it says your return and it asks you based on your answers in Step three, lesson four, what must you have to recognize that something is a motor vehicle? Well, the first thing you have to have is a concept of the class called motor vehicle, you have to have some awareness of the physical markers that indicate something as a motor vehicle, for example, four wheels with tires, at least two doors, a compartment big enough for an engine you don't know if there's an engine in there or not. It probably has a steering wheel or some mechanism by which to steer in terms of turning the wheels to and fro.

Motor vehicle is a class that has its own characteristics. Well then what you must do know to recognize different body styles. Well It helps if you know that they exist that there are two doors, four doors, three doors, five doors, vans, which have multiple doors, there are different body styles and each of those represents a class. And finally, what's required to select the Chevrolet trucks from Atlanta Chevrolet, Dodge and Ford trucks? Well, if you know all of the things above, if you can recognize its motor vehicle, if you can recognize body styles, then now you're down to what are the unique characteristics that tell me this is a Chevy and not a Ford. And for me, it's the bow tie, it's always the bow tie as opposed to the blue oval in terms of Chevy and Ford Dodge, you're always going to have a Rams Head on it.

So believe it or not, all of these things are required to be able to pick out a Chevy truck, but we don't think about them because they're so automatic. So the power of verbs is that they tell us a lot of stuff about what's behind what we're looking at. And when you're helping people learn things that have never even thought about those things before. It really helps to think through your verbs.
