transitive
The word "transitive" is not a verb, it's an adjective. A transitive verb is an action verb that has a direct object.
It can be used as both a transitive and intransitive verb.
Transitive
Yes. Any verb that takes a direct object is a transitive verb (as in: Lady GaGa HAS a ________).
Transitive nouns don't exist. There are, however, transitive verbs. Transitive verbs must have a direct object. For example, "holds" is a transitive verb because it requires a direct object. "She holds" is not a complete thought, but "she holds flowers" is.
"Vt" is an abbreviation for "transitive verb." In linguistic terms, a transitive verb is a verb that requires an object to complete its meaning.
No, a transitive verb is a verb that requires both a direct subject and one or more objects. Some auxilliary (helping) verbs are, however, transitive verbs.
To fell a tree = transitive I fell = intransitive
The verb "to sing" can be both transitive and intransitive depending on the context. When the verb is used without an object, it is considered intransitive (e.g., "She sings beautifully"). When the verb is followed by a direct object (e.g., "She sings a song"), it is considered transitive.
"Chirped" can be both a transitive and intransitive verb. As an intransitive verb, it stands alone without requiring an object (e.g., "The birds chirped"). As a transitive verb, it requires an object to complete its meaning (e.g., "The birds chirped a lovely tune").
