Answer 2

Answer:

•The hunter killed a tiger. - killed- Transitive verb.

•The cat is mewing.- mewing- Intransitive Verb.

•The man laughed loudly.- laughed-  Transitive verb.

•I gave her food.- gave- Transitive verb.

•Fire burns brightly.- burns- Intransitive verb.

•Mr. Rana teaches us English.- teaches-  Transitive verb.

•The cobbler makes shoes. makes- Intransitive verb.

•Water is boiling.- boiling- Intransitive verb.

•I wrote her a letter. - Wrote- Intransitive verb.

•The sun is very hot.- hot- Transitive verb.

Explanation:

• A transitive verb is one that calls for a direct object, which is a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase that comes after the verb and completes the meaning of the sentence by identifying the subject or object of the verb's activity.
• An object cannot be taken by an intransitive verb. An improper sentence will be produced if an object is used right after an intransitive verb. However, there might be additional details following the verb, such a prepositional phrase or an adverb.

Thus this is the answer.
