A transitive verb has two characteristics.

First, it is an action verb, expressing a doable activity like kick, want, listen, write, eat, clean, etc.

Second, it must have a direct object, something or someone who receives the action of the verb.

Two dollars is the direct object. Gave is something you can do therefore gave is a transitive verb

What kind of verb requires a object?

Verbs requiring an object are transitive verbs. In the sentence, "I threw the ball," threw is transitive. By contrast, in the sentence "I run," run is intransitive, because it does not require an object.Many verbs can be transitive or intransitive, depending upon the context. For example, in "I run the course each morning," run is now a transitive verb, because it has an object. (The object, by the way, is the thing being acted upon. The subject is the thing doing the acting.)
