What is an example of impersonal verbs?

Impersonal verbs are verbs that do not use a specific subject, but instead use the generic subject it. They're often called “weather verbs” or “meteorological verbs” because they're commonly used to describe the weather, like in the impersonal verb examples “it's raining” or “it's snowing.”

What is an impersonal form?

Impersonal verbs appear only in non-finite forms or with third-person inflection. In the third person, the subject is either implied or a dummy referring to people in general. The term "impersonal" simply means that the verb does not change according to grammatical person.

What is a personal vs impersonal verb?

Sentences that contain personal verbs typically have a subject noun — a person, place or thing that is acting in the sentence. Instead of a subject, a sentence with an impersonal verb usually starts with an impersonal or "dummy" pronoun, such as "it" or "there" in English.
