Maybe you would like to introduce in your thread the concepts of "Verb vs.
Noun" and "Predicate vs. Argument".
The predicates "is a dog" or "eats" may be made of words or lexies that are
classified as a noun (+ copula in English) or a verb.
A verb is a lexy that is simply "ready to use" as a predicate.
