A Verb is a word that tells or asserts something about a person or thing.
Verbs are of two kinds
1.Transitive Verb.
2.Intransitive Verb.
1. Transitive Verb
A Verb that has an object is called a Transitive Verb.
example:
Suriyaa wrote a letter.
2.Intransitive Verb
A Verb that does not have an object is called an Intransitive Verb.
example:
Suriyaa ran quickly.
Brief Explain :
Read these sentences:
1. The boy kicks the football.
2. The boy laughs loudly.
In sentence 1, the action denoted by the verb 'kicks' passes over from the doer or subject 'boy' to some object football. The verb kicks is, therefore, called a Transitive verb.
In sentence 2, the action denoted by the verb, 'laughs' stops with the doer or subject 'boy' and does not pass over to an object. The verb 'laugh' is, therefore called a Intransitive verb.
(Transitive means - passive over)
(Intransitive means - not passing over)
A Transitive verb is a verb that denotes an action which passes over from the doer or subject to an object.
An Intransitive verb is a verb that denotes an action which does not pass over to an object, or which expresses a state or being.
