A dynamic verb is a verb that shows continued or progressive action on the part of the subject. The opposite of stative verb.

Dynamic verbs have duration, that is, they occur over time. This time may or may not have a defined endpoint, and may or may not yet have occurred. These distinctions lead to various forms related to tense and aspect.
