Question

A. State whether the verbs in the following sentences are Transitive or Intransitive: 1. Birds fly in the air.
​

Answer 1

Answer:  

It is a transitive verb.

Explanation:  

There are two types of verbs- transitive and intransitive.  

For a sentence to be transitive, it has to have an object, to which the action is transferred. On the contrary, intransitive verbs do not have any object. So there is no transferring of action from one pint to another.  

So, the sentence ::  

"Birds fly in the sky" is transitive for it has an object "the sky". 'Birds' is the 'subject', 'fly' is the 'verb' and 'sky' is the 'object'.
