Transitive Verbs

Question:

Transitive Verbs
• Tip #2 The answer to the whom? or what? question must follow an action
verb to be transitive.
Ex.
The ate fast.
What did the worm eat? (no direct object)
If it does not answer the whom? or what?….

Intransitive Verbs
Ex.
The ate fast.

Action verbs that do not have a direct object are called intransitive verbs.

Verbs with Indirect Objects
Two kinds of objects may follow an action verb.
The object that receives the direct action of the verb is the direct object. However, the object that tells to whom or for whom the action is done is called the indirect object.
