Transitive verbs
Transitive verbs are verbs that require one or more objects.
Examples:
- She cut the cake.
- They climbed the mountain.
- He gave her a flower.
The verbs cut, climbed, and gave have objects.
Transitive verbs | Objects |
cut | the cake |
climbed | the mountain |
gave | her and a flower |
Transitive verbs can be categorized into two types: monotransitive and ditransitive:
1. Monotransitive verbs are verbs that require exactly one object.
Example:
He wrote a poem
Example:
He wrote a poem
2. Ditransitive verbs are verbs that may require two objects, a direct object and an indirect object.
Example:
She offered him (first object) her car (second object).
Example:
She offered him (first object) her car (second object).
Intransitive verbs
By contrast, intransitive verbs do not require an object.
Examples:
- They run.
- He died.
- She slept.
- It snows.
The verbs run, died, slept and snows have no objects. They are intransitive.
