"English Question"

In the sentence, "The runaway train went over the hill" woukd went be an auxilary verb, or would over be the adverbial?

Brain = numb from transcript analysing, I'd probably be able to figure otherwise.

Thanks in advance.

Am you grammer letting you down?

I bad Englihs at

Auxillary verbs are words like 'would', 'could' and 'might'

I would help, but my English sucks.

Or do I mean sucks English? Bah!

It's preceeded by an asterisk, thus negating the need for a capital. It is naturally assumed that for "action indications" a capital is not needed. Although some do include it.

You forgot the capital "t"

Tut tut.

A preposition would naturally be before it. It wouldn't refer to how it was done, but showing the relationship to it? I think.

I think over is just a preposition.

This is excuseable due to me being a Trekkie fan.

If even Patrick Stewart can split the infinitive, then I'm sure that I can.
