Question

Is the underlined verb in the sentence transitive or intransitive?

Did you cough loudly?



A.
transitive


B.
intransitive

Answer 1

It would be intransitive because a transitive verb has at least one direct or indirect object.

Answer 2

Yes I Do! lol! The Intransitive Property as stated above is your answer. Here is an example Boiled is intransitive in “My blood boiled” but transitive in “I boiled some water.” Intransitive is A verb that has has two characteristics. First, it is an action verb, expressing a doable activity like arrive, go, lie, sneeze, sit, die, cough, etc. Second, unlike a transitive verb, it will not have a direct object receiving the action.

Answer 3

So yes I do ''cough loudly'' do you wanna make something out of it?!?! ''No honey go back to sleep'' The Intransitive Property is any Verb like the ones I stated above that receives an action.
