Answer: The answer is Main verb

Step-by-step explanation:

Main verbs are often assisted by auxiliary (or “helper”) verbs. These verbs help show when in time events are happening.

For example, in the sentence “Brian was eating a pizza,” the auxiliary verb “was” shows Brian eating a pizza in the past.

Other auxiliary verbs: is, has, has been, had been. Auxiliary verbs always appear along with their main verbs, for example, He is going.

so that's why the answer is main verb
