∙ 11y agoIntransitive verbs are verbs that do not have a direct object (something receiving the action of the verb).
- I sneezed fifteen times in a row.
- She lies around all day.
- Justin always arrives late.
- Sit down!
- I go to the store every day.
Many verbs can be transitive and intransitive, but the verbs listed above are always intransitive.
