Answer 1

Answer:

TRANSITIVE VERBS

Transitive verbs require an object to complete their meaning.

Imagine that I say:

I bought.

This sentence is incomplete. There is information that is missing.

You are probably wondering what I bought. (What did you buy Rob?)

Why is this sentence incomplete?

Because BOUGHT (the past of buy) is a transitive verb and a transitive verb needs an object after it to complete the sentence. The object after a transitive verb can be a noun or a pronoun.

I bought a car.

Now the sentence is complete and we can understand it. We added the object “a car” after the verb.

Let’s look at some other examples.

If someone says:

She likes. (incomplete - incorrect)

You probably think … She likes WHAT? (What does she like?)

Like is a transitive verb so we need an object after the verb.

She likes chocolate.

Now we know what she likes so this sentence is complete and correct.

I invited Angelica.

You cannot just say I invited because the sentence is incomplete. The person who is listening would probably ask “Whom did you invite?” So we need an object (in this case a person) after the transitive verb invite.

I cut my finger.

You cannot just say I cut because the sentence is incomplete. The person who is listening would probably ask “Cut what?”

Cut is a transitive verb because you need to cut something (an object, a thing).

The man stole a bike.
