Question

meaning of transtive verb and instranstive verb?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A transitive verb is a verb that accepts one or more objects. This contrasts with intransitive verbs, which do not have objects. ... An example of a ditransitive verb in English is the verb to give, which may feature a subject, an indirect object, and a direct object: John gave Mary the book.

In grammar, an intransitive verb does not allow a direct object. This is distinct from a transitive verb, which takes one or more objects. The verb property is called transitivity. Intransitive verbs are often identified as those that can't be followed by who or what.

Answer 2

Answer:

✪Transitive Verbs

A transitive verb is a verb that requires an object to receive the action.

☆Example:

✧Correct: The speaker discussed different marketing strategies in the video.

✧Incorrect: The speaker discussed in the video.

The verb "discuss" requires an object ("different marketing strategies"). It is necessary to state what the speaker discussed.

☆Example Sentences

Some other examples of transitive verbs are "address," "borrow," "bring," "discuss," "raise," "offer," "pay," "write," "promise," and "have."

• The instructor addressed, the student’s question.

• Miriam borrowed the methodology book from her classmate because she forgot her copy.

• Can you bring your copy of the textbook to our study group meeting?

• Donovan gave the gift to his sister.

• The committee members will raise money for the new project.

✪Intransitive Verbs

An intransitive verb does not take an object. Using an object immediately after an intransitive verb will create an incorrect sentence. However, there may be other information after the verb, such as one or more prepositional phrases or an adverb.

☆Example

Correct: The students arrived at the residency in Houston.

✧Incorrect: The students arrived Houston.

The second sentence is incorrect because the verb cannot take an object.

☆Example Sentences

Some other examples of intransitive verbs are "deteriorate," "vote," "sit," "increase," "laugh," "originate," "fluctuate," and "trend."

• The patient’s health deteriorated quickly.

• Ahmad voted in the local election.

• May I sit here?

• Attendance increased at the weekly study sessions as finals drew near.

• Susan laughed.

Note: An intransitive verb can take more than one prepositional phrase or adverb.

• The patient’s health deteriorated quickly during the night.

• Ahmad voted for the incumbent in the local election.
