Transitive verbs are action verbs that require an object to receive that action. For example: She baked a cake. (She=subject, baked= transitive verb, a cake=object) I ride the bicycle. (I=subject, rode=transitive verb, the bicycle=object) You can easily find the object of the sentence, by asking ''what'' (or in some cases ''whom''). In this case: What did she bake? A cake = Object What do I ride? The bicycle = Object Intransitive verbs, unilike transitive, don't require an object. For example: The girl cried. (The girl= subject, cried=intransitive verb) The train stopped. (The train= subject, stopped= intransitive verb) You can see that there is no object following these verbs. Hope that helps!
