Question

Select the action verb. If the verb is transitive, also select its direct object.

Answer 1

The action verb in this question is 'select' and its direct object is 'the correct verb.'

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of this question is English.

The verb 'select' is the action verb. It is a transitive verb because it has a direct object, which is 'the correct verb' in this context.

Examples of transitive verbs include 'eat,' 'read,' and 'write.' These verbs need a direct object to complete their meaning.

Answer 2

A transitive verb has two characteristics. First, it is an action verb, expressing a doable activity like kick, want, paint, write, eat, clean,etc. Second, it must have a direct object,something or someone who receives the action of the verb.

This is the pattern:

Subject + Action Verb + Direct Object
