Question

what is an active verb? a verb that describes an action in the most polite way possible a verb that describes an ongoing action, like \going\ or \assisting\ a verb that helps the reader understand what an action looked like, felt like, or how it impacted others a verb that points to a motion, like
un\ or \stand\

Explanation:

An active - verb is used when the subject of a sentence performs the action. Verbs like "run" or "stand" have the subject doing the action, which is characteristic of active - verbs. The first option about politeness is incorrect. The second option describes present - participle verbs which is different from the general concept of active - verbs. The third option is more about descriptive verbs in general rather than specifically active - verbs.

Answer:

A verb that points to a motion, like "run" or "stand"
