    The document discusses whether "to be" or another verb should be considered the main verb in a sentence. In many sentences, "to be" verbs like "is", "are", "was", "were" are used as a linking verb to connect the subject with a descriptive word or phrase, rather than as the main action verb. However, determining the main verb can depend on the context and meaning being conveyed in the specific sentence.
