have you waited long for the delivery? a. transitive b. intransitive the underlined words are have and waited
transitive
B I think
Doesn't transitive have to have a direct object?
yes , here "long "is direct object
lol no @Learner11 long is an adverb
This is obviously intransitive.
Long is describing the verb, so it is an adverb which can't be a direct object.
@countonme123 That was a bit rude. People make mistakes.
but the sentence is also make sense without the " for the delivery" part . But if we delete the word "long" then there is no sense and the sentence will need a object .
The sentence makes complete sense without the adverb. Have you waited for the delivery? S V Prep Adj OP You have waited for the delivery.
Have you waited for the delivery? Is still a complete sentence.
