What is "verb stacking"?

Verb stacking is a linguistic phenomenon where multiple verbs are used in sequence without conjunctions to express a series of actions or states. This construction often allows speakers to convey complex ideas in a compact form. For example, in the phrase "She came, saw, conquered," the verbs "came," "saw," and "conquered" are stacked to convey a series of actions performed by the subject. Verb stacking can be an effective way to enhance the rhythm and flow of language while emphasizing the relationship between the actions described.
