Action Verbs are verbs that express action.
Ex: run, walk, do, drive.
Transitive and Intransitive Verbs
Most action verbs are defined as transitive or intransitive. This means that some are used with a direct object (the person or thing that receives the action of the subject) and others don’t need a direct object. Some verbs can be both transitive and intransitive depending on their meaning.
- Transitive Verb – Joe will send the price quote as soon as he can.
- Intransitive Verb – Many of the students are not well. They coughed throughout the lesson.
