What is transitive and intransitive verb
Answers
A transitive verb is a verb that accepts one or more objects. This contrasts with intransitive verbs, which do not have objects. Transitivity is traditionally thought a global property of a clause, by which activity is transferred from an agent to a patient.
Answer:An action verb which has a direct object is transitive verb. That means the action has to pass from the subject to the object. For example:
The boy kicked the ball. Here the action of kicking is passed from the boy to the ball. So here the verb kicking is a transitive verb. So, this sentence can be changed in to passive.
An action verb with no direct object is intransitive verb. Example:
The birds fly in the sky. Here the action flying can not be passed from the birds to the sky . So, this sentence has no transitive verb. So, it can not be changed in to passive.
