4. Behavioral Process
Behavioral processes are midway between material and mental processes. They are mainly physical behavior. The most typical pattern is a clause consisting
of Behaver and Process only Halliday and Matthiessen, 2004:251. It is a process physiological behavior with no real Goal. The doer of this process is called as
Behaver, while the process itself is known as the behavioral process. The typical verb process in behavioral process are breathing, coughing, smiling, dreaming and
staring, etc. Butt 2000:54 explains that sometimes there is a Range-like Participant known as Behavior, which extends the process; sometimes, especially
with relation to those most closely related to mental processes, the Range is a separate entity somewhat like a Phenomenon.

5. Verbal Process
It is the process which construe saying. Verbal process deals with the process of saying by using any kinds of verb such as tell, say, ask, etc. There are
several potential participants in verbal process. They are Sayer, Receiver, Verbiage and Target. Sayer is the doer of this process, while Receiver according
to Halliday the one to whom the saying is directed or it can be said as the addressee of the speech; for example, me, your parents, etc. On the other hand,
Target is explained as the participant which is the object of the talk while Verbiage is the function that corresponds to what is said, representing it as a class
of thing rather than as a report or quote for example, “what” in What did you say?.
