Questions transitive verbs for many incomprehensible.The theme of "transitive verb" one of the toughest in the school curriculum.The time allocated to the study is not enough, and therefore does not develop a complete picture in the definition of transitive and intransitive verbs.Children often do not know how to define a category.In this article we will look at in more detail transitive and intransitive verbs.
Thus, the category of verbs that can express the relationship between the subject, commits an act, and the object receiving this action indicates a transitive verb.The point of all is the following: it is necessary to define the action moves to the object or does not pass.Hence the name direct: transient intransitive verbs.
fact, the verb is transitive - an action for passing.They are always combined with nouns in the accusative case, and in other words, verbs govern the accusative.Under certain conditions, instead of the accusative can be the genitive.This occurs when there is a complete negation of the action (not learned the lesson, did not bring the bread) or action applies not fully and partly (drinking tea, brought bread).In summary, we conclude: transitive verb - is he:
a) is combined with a pronoun or a noun in the accusative case, while there is no excuse (to buy a ticket, eating a sandwich, watch this (film), and so on);
b) is combined with a pronoun or a noun in the genitive case.
It should be noted that the main condition for the existence of a transitive verb is a noun denoting an object and standing in the accusative without a preposition, or under specific conditions in the genitive case.Otherwise, the verb is intransitive.For example, I ran an hour.The verb does not run a transitional because the noun hour - this is not the object of the action.Or live week.All the same, intransitive verb as a noun week can not endure the specified action.
One of the grammatical categories of transitional features indicate the presence of various forms of the passive voice (the newspaper I read, in the school curriculum is not taught) and the availability of forms involved in the passive voice (read the newspaper mother).
Now intransitive verbs.This designation action, not rolling to a particular object, but only its affects.This intransitive verbs have no direct object.In other words, they do not control the above cases and have no form of the passive voice (white sail, swim in the sea, refuse water, and so on).
Many linguists say that a well-defined border between transitive and intransitive verbs do not exist.This ability verb revealed in its semantics.And it often happens that these two species interact with each other: to cross the road, go on the road.The advantage of this feature - grammatical identity.
basis of semantics, transitive verb category is divided into groups.For example, the verb is transitive, often represent:
- creating objects (fictional or existing): compose, create, drink;
- destruction of objects: to kill and destroy;
- object change: change, restructure;
- moving object: to shift, move;
- emotional value: respect, love, hate;
- the value of sensation and perception of object: to feel, see, hear.
Among the semantic groups of intransitive verbs can be called a few basic:
- position in space: run, stand, lie down;
- a sign of the object: to turn white, withering, blossom;
- employment: from work, sit back, play.
