THE ACTION VERBS
The PC-Style Lexicon also includes a list of action
verbs. These words are used to determine how much "punch"
your writing has. The Lexicon contains these action verbs:
BEAR DO KEEP SET TAKE
BLOW DRAW LAY SHAKE TALK
BREAK DRIVE LET SHOW TEAR
BRING DROP LOOK SKIP THROW
CALL FALL MAKE SLIP TIE
CARRY GET PICK SPLIT TOUCH
CAST GIVE PULL STAND TURN
CATCH GO PUSH STAY WALK
COME HANG PUT STICK WEAR
CUT HOLD RUN STRIKE WORK
As with the personal words in the Lexicon, you can add
or delete action verbs. There are a few guidelines you need
to follow, which are outlined in ADDING MORE WORDS.
