系动词亦称连系动词（Link Verb），作为系动词，它本身有词义，但不能单独用作谓语，后面必须跟表语（亦称补语），构成系表结构说明主语的状况、性质、特征等情况。

说明：

有些系动词又是实义动词，该动词表达实义时，有词义，可单独作谓语，例如：

He felt ill yesterday.

他昨天病了。（felt是系动词，后跟表语，说明主语的情况。）

He fell off the ladder.

他从梯子上摔了下来。(fell是实义动词，单独作谓语。)

1）状态系动词

用来表示主语状态，只有be一词，例如：

He is a teacher. 他是一名教师。（is与表语一起说明主语的身份。）

2）持续系动词

用来表示主语继续或保持一种状况或态度，主要有keep， remain， stay， lie， stand。例如：

He always kept silent at meeting. 他开会时总保持沉默。

3）表像系动词

用来表示“看起来像”这一概念，主要有seem， appear， look。例如：

He looks tired. 他看起来很累。

He seems （to be）very sad. 他看起来很伤心。

4）感官系动词

感官系动词主要有feel， smell， sound， taste。例如：

This kind of cloth feels very soft. 这种布手感很软。

This flower smells very sweet. 这朵花闻起来很香。

5）变化系动词

这些系动词表示主语变成什么样，变化系动词主要有become， grow，turn， fall， get， go， come， run。例如：

He became mad after that. 自那之后，他疯了。

She grew rich within a short time. 她没多长时间就富了。

6）终止系动词

表示主语已终止动作，主要有prove，turn out，表示“证实”，“变成”之意。例如：
