Keyword action

A keyword action is a word or words, usually, a verb, that substitutes for a piece of rules text. Many keywords are summarized in reminder text, especially in core sets.
Keyword actions are somewhat different from keyword abilities, and both are distinct from ability words. Collectively, they are described as mechanics.
Monstrosity is notable because it is the only keyword action that is not a verb.
