Answer:

use: V = verb

never: ADV = adverb

Step-by-step explanation:

Use is a verb, which is a word that expresses an action that the subject (I) of the sentence does.

Never is an adverb, which is a word that describes the verb use within the sentence. It is an adverb of frequency because it explains how often the action expressed by the verb use occurs.

The words in the sentence should be identified as follows:
I (pronoun, subject)
never (adverb, modifies the verb)
use (verb)
profanity (noun, direct object)

An adverb is a word that modifies, or describes, a verb, adjective or adverb.
An adjective is a word that describes a noun (person, place, thing or idea).
A verb is a word that is an action, linking or helping verb. In this sentence the verb, use, is an action verb.
