Question 14 - Verbs, Transitive and Intransitive

Published:
2.3K Views

Description

:bulletorange: More examples of transitive verbs: hug, attack, eat, tell (All of these must be done TO something -- they must have a direct object. You can't just "hug." You must "hug someone." "Someone" is your direct object.)

:bulletred: More examples of intransitive verbs: hibernate, smile, explode, breathe

Remember: verbs aren't always just ONE type.


If this remains unclear, feel free to ask for further information about intransitive and transitive verbs.

The rules of transitive and intransitive verbs apply to both British English and American English.
