Hello,

Do you mean like explain, describe etc?

If yes then here you go:

Assess: weight up whether a statement is true
Calculate: mathematically work out the value of something
Compare describe the similarities and differences of something
Describe set out the characteristics
Discuss bring forward the important point or set out both sides of an arguement or issue or element of content, for and against.
Evaluate give your verdict after providing evidence which other agrees with and contradicts an arguement.
Examine look in close detail and establish the key facts and important issues.
Explain set out the causes of something and or the factors which influence it.
Suggest offer an opinion for a particular course of action on an event or issue
To what extent do you agree? How much you agree with statement based on the evidence in argument.

I hope this helps
Good luck :smile:
