    • Prepositional verb

    Correct Answer
    A. Prepositional verb
    Explanation
    The sentence "I come to visit my friends every Sunday" contains a prepositional verb. The verb "come" is followed by the preposition "to" and the verb "visit" is the main action of the sentence. The preposition "to" indicates the purpose or destination of the action, showing that the speaker comes with the intention of visiting their friends.

    Correct Answer
    A. Everybody stands up to sign the anthem.
    Explanation
