Question: Identify each compound verb:
Pick up your clothes, please, and then vacuum and dust
Answer: There are 3 verbs in this sentence: pick, vacuum, and dust, but the only compound verb is ''Pick up''.
Explanation: A compound verb occurs when two verbs are needed to fully explain the action taken by the subject. In this case, the word ''up'' is needed to fully explain the action of ''pick up'' so these two words together build a compound verb.
The compound verb is ""pick up""

- prepositional verb:the verb "üp"ïs a preposition which must be added to ""pick""to make sense.
