Abstract
Based on the review of the research by Russian scholars on different types of verbs, the article looks at the English verbs of speaking and those of transmitting information. Information transmission verbs as a part of verbs of speaking may be divided into verbs of informing and verbs of requesting information. The componential analysis employed in these verbs analysis helped distinguish a number of differentiating semes in their definitions. As a result, verbs of informing were divided into seven groups: “training / preparation”, “official setting + a large number of people”, “negative / secret information”, “explanation, clarification”, “basic information”, “true / false information”, “additional information”. Verbs of requesting information include five groups: “official request”, “a large number of questions”, “information search”, “receiving information”, “study of information”.
