thank you for your helpful explanation
but I'm confused about stative verbs.
you said my examples are not stative verbs but I found them from this site :
http://www.perfect-english-grammar.com/stative-verbs.html
Is this site wrong???
Is it right to say: I'm having a car.
and also we have another verbs like:hate -love -... that are always stative but we can't substitute them with am-is -are    
example:I love birds.but I'm not birds

and another question: Are all of linking verbs  intransitive?
and also all of stative verbs are intransive or not ?because of love and hate and ...

would you please explain it...I'm confused

thank you very much

hello
thank you very much for your perfect and helpful explanation

but i have a question
you said "all stative verbs are linking verbs"
for example you say in this examples 'think" and "have" are linking verb because they are stative:
I think that coffee is great
I have a car

but I think it's not right because i wrote this sentence that: "How do you tell when they are action verbs and when they are linking verbs?
If you can substitute am, is, or are and the sentence still sounds logical, you have a linking verb on your hands. "

But in this examples it's not possible to substitute am is are  ???

would you please explain it that think and have here are linking verb because they are stative?


my second question is that you say in this sentence "They are arguing " are is linking verb .but it's not correct according definition of linking verbs because "are" doesn't have any connection role.

please explain them.I need your help
thank you very much

hi
i have a big question that nobody can answer me until now :(

and my question is this:

why some intransitive verbs take objects?
for example about yearn:  i yearned to go there.
or :he proceeded to deny the truth

and my second question is this:
if we have some intransitive verb with preposition like:he complains about everything

 which part of sentences is object ?everything or about everything.i want to know preposition ( about) is part of object or part of verb.

plz answer me...thank you
