CLASSES OF VERBS.

+Hints for Oral Instruction+.--_The man caught_ makes no complete
assertion, and is not a sentence. If I add the object complement _fish_, I
complete the assertion and form a sentence--_The man caught fish_. The
action expressed by _caught_ passes over from the man to the fish.
_Transitive_ means _passing over_, and so all those verbs that express an
action that passes over from a doer to something which receives, are called
+Transitive verbs+.

_Fish swim_. The verb _swim_ does not require an object to complete the
sentence. No action passes from a doer to a receiver. These verbs which
express action that does not pass over to a receiver, and all those which
do not express action at all, but simply _being_ or _state of being_, are
called +Intransitive verbs+.
