It's a thing when we treat it like a thing. For example, we use an article or determiner (a, the, my, etc) or we put it where a subject or object should be.
When it's a verb, it comes after the subject. There's usually a time-marker as well somewhere.
So basically, we know the difference by how we use it in a sentence.
