Definition :
Transitive verbs take direct objects. The vast majority of verbs in English are transitive.
Kata kerja Transitive diantaranya adalah: Drink, watch, read, fill, open, close, dll
Examples:
- He watches the film. (Kalimat ini tidak akan lengkap, jika "the film" kita hilangkan. Orang lain akan bertanya-tanya - menonton apa?, maka watch (menonton) membutuhkan object agar makna kalimat tersebut dapat dipahami).
- The man cuts the tree.
- He drops his bottles.
- The contestants still misunderstood then.
- They grow the rubber trees.
- I took my books to class.
- We played chess last night.
- I paid the bill last week.
- She studies Russian.
=> Notice that transitive verbs always take objects. You will always be able to ask a question beginning with 'What' or 'Whom'.
Examples:
I paid the bill last week. - What did you pay?
She studies Russian. - What does she study?
She studies Russian. - What does she study?
