Any language is a system consisting of some elements. Stable connections and relations between the elements of the system form its structure. In this article, we analyze verbs, one of the main parts of the English language, at the moment when they act as a predicate. The predicate is the most complicated part of English grammar. In order to facilitate the study of the English predicate, a particular sequence of studying English verbs has been developed. It corresponds to the revealed hierarchy of the English verbs beginning with the most important verb - to be , which is followed by the verb to have , then modal verbs and finally the verbs of action . To make the task of translating an English text easier, an algorithm of the predicate search is offered. The proposed sequence is the basis for the manual written by this article's author, which is intended to make English an easier language to learn and understand for the students.
