Finite Verbs

A Finite verb (sometimes called main verbs) is a verb that has a subject and changes its form according to tense and the number & person of the subject. They are used in tense and can be indicative of passive or active voice.

Finite verb (जिसे कभी कभी मुख्य verb भी कहते है) वह verb है जिसके साथ सब्जेक्ट होता है और इसकी form सब्जेक्ट के अनुसार टेन्स के मुताबिक बदलती है । वे टेन्स में प्रयुक्त होती है और वाक्य के active या passive होने का संकेत दे सकती है ।

Non-finite Verbs

A Non-Finite verb (also known as a verbal) has no subject, tense or number. It does not change its form according to the number and person of the subject. It is a verb form which is not acting like a verb (we need to form a sentence). It is a verb form which functions as a noun or an adjective or an adverb.
