AnagramsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. In grammar, an intransitive verb is a verb that is associated with only one noun or noun phrase. The number of noun phrases associated with a verb is known in linguistics as its valency, and so an intransitive verb is also called a univalent verb. In English, this one noun is the subject and so an intransitive verb is commonly said to have no object; this distinguishes it from a transitive verb, which has a valency greater than one. Examples of intransitive verbs include to die and to sleep. Transitive verbs include to kill and to buy. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License Can someone please explain transitive and intransitive verbs? Q. Can someone please explain transitive and intransitive verbs on a simple and understandable way, thanks!! Asked by vi0letah0lic! - Sun Jul 13 05:17:47 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. well the transitive verbs are doing with the objects. Like "I give my son money every morning" here the transitive verb is "give". however, in intransitive verbs, they have nothing to do with the objects or there is no object in the sentence. Like "You talk too much" so here the verb "talk" doesn't have an object to refer to. It is only about whether it verb has an object to refer to or not.

We just covered this in class and I am having problems understanding the concept so can someone explain them simply? Thanks in advance!!! Asked by Angelus - Mon Sep 14 02:32:17 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. basically an intransitive situation is one where there is nobody "doing" an action, the action happens by itself. For example, imagine an automatic door closing by itself. In english we use the passive form to describe this.. i.e. I close the door (active) The door closes But in Japanese they have a special type of verb specifically for this situation, the intransitive verb. Because there is no "acting person" in this sentence you can't use the "wo" particle, because that is for people doing things.. instead you use "ga". for a lot of verbs it makes no sense to have an intransitive form. eg. "to eat".. there is no time when a apple will eat itself so there is no intransitive form of "to eat". check these out Answered by Mrs Thievery - Mon Sep 14 08:47:54 2009 tell me the verb in these sentences are transitve or intransitive?
