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.

A transitive verb is a verb in which the action is being done to someone or something else. "sit down" is not transitive. "Chop the vegetables" contains a transitive verb.
