OVERVIEW

Transitive verbs must be followed by an object The

object is usually the thing or person affected by the

action We can use intransitive verbs without an

object:

X

-J D o m i n i c kicked the ball W h e n hefellflat on his

back, I laughed

Here are more examples:

I think we ought to Does the Loch Ness

discuss this matter as monster really exist?

soon as posible, don't

y ou ?

Can't you control yourself I should sleep well tonight,

just for five minutes? after al1 that exercise

You really can't expect The man is believed to

him to stay silent for the have disappeared shortly

whole trial after leaving the night club

We can use some verbs both transitively and

intransitively, sometimes with different meanings

After the match, he went He walked backfrom the

home and walked the dog penalty spot looking

sheepish

You're not really going to After checking al1 the doors

leave that mess al1 over had been locked, he turned

thefloor, are you? and lefi

As well as using nouns and pronouns as the object

of transitive verbs, we can use noun clauses (see

Unit 10):

I knew what he was going to say

I think that it's a waste of time

Some transitive verbs can have two objects, the

first of which is usually a personal object:

Harry gave me a cal[ later that evening

Pass me the salt, would you?

I ofered him what he had asked for but he didn't

hear me

With some verbs, we can use either two objects or

an object + prepositional phrase:

1 sent you the package I've sent the package to you

With other verbs, e.g explain, report, describe, we can only use object + prepositional phrase:

x -.

J He explained the procedure to me

We can follow some intransitive verbs with prepositional phrases or words referring to place

or time:

It occurs to me that m y licence is due for renewal soon

I used to live here

They're coming tomorrow, or so they say

We can follow link verbs, e.g seem, sound and be,

with adjectives and noun phrases:

I must say Ifeel a little nervous about the concert

this evening

I'mfrankly astonished that someone so mediocre can

end up as President

The whole thing seerns a waste of time to me

Jones Iobbed the ball high and Vassily fe\\ ba~rwarde

Vassily walred b a c ~ t o the baseline '1 should win

this game easily,' Jones ttiough

Vassily said t o himself He won the match

5 VERBS NOT USED REFLEXIVELY

SECTION 1

Reflexive and reciprocal verbs

We can use most transitive verbs with reflexive

pronouns (himself; ourselves, etc.) when the meaning is

appropriate:

The driver blamed himself for the accident

The escaped prisoner turned himself in to the police

Behave is normally intransitive but we can use it

transitively with reflexive pronouns:

The boys behaved themselves very well

A very few verbs are always followed by reflexive

pronouns:

He busied himselfcleaning the room

You'll have to content yourself with second place

They prided themselves on their performance

They availed themselves of thefree cofee

The following examples show verbs, including phrasal

verbs, that we commonly use with reflexive pronouns:

He proved himselfto be unreliable Don't kid yourselj

he's completely untrustworthy Pul1 yourself together!

lfyou don't stop working for a bit you'll wear yourself

out

Other verbs that we commonly use reflexively

include:

assert distinguish commit exert repeat suit

USED REFLEXIVELY

A few verbs change their meanings when used with

reflexive pronouns:

Meaning 1

Bach composed an

enormous amount

of music

Can you explain what

you mean?

Have you applied for

the job yet?

They expressed their

disapproval

Meaning 2

The witness took a deep breath and composed himself:

1 think you need to explain yourself:

You'll have to apply yourselfto the work more

Doesn't he express himselfwell!

Do you enjoy watching Did you enjoy yourselflast

Some verbs are commonly reflexive in some languages but are generally used intransitively in English:

He got up, washed and shaved

We may use these verbs reflexively for emphasis:

He got up and washed himselfand got dressed

Other verbs we use in this way include:

adapt dress undress hide

We use some verbs that involve two or more participants (crash, marry) intransitively when it's clear

who the participants are In many other languages these verbs have an object or reflexive pronoun:

We disagreed, we fought, then we kissed and made up

Here are more examples of verbs we use this way:

embrace argue touch fa11 out compete meet chat negotiate quarrel haggle divorce split up talk collide shake hands

We sometimes use with each other with some of

these verbs for emphasis or to make the meaning clear, but it isn't grammatically necessary:

We disagreed (with each other)

With other verbs, we must always use a prepositional phrase:

d 1 didn't see her coming and we bumped into each other

Three of the following sentences are correct Put a %

next to the one that is incorrect and a ? next to the one that sounds unnatural

a The whole platoon distinguished themselves in the skirmish

b 1 was so exhausted 1 just undressed myself and fe11 into bed

c 1 think the referee behaved in the only way possible and showed him a red card

d The French team asserted themselves early in the match

f She stood as tal1 as she could in order to intimidate him

h They claimed the project's failure was nothing to do with them

@ Arrange these instructions into sensible pairs according to

SECTION 2

Verbs followed by that-clauses and

adjectives

Many verbs can be followed by a that-clause (see Unit

lo), especially report verbs and verbs referring to

mental processes such as thinking, feeling, realising:

I've decided that I'm going awayfor the weekend

Here are more examples of verbs we can use in

this way:

comment say forecast request write warn

assume consider infer conclude reckon

recognise presume

the fact that

We can use the phrase the fact that with some of these

verbs for additional emphasis:

1 recognise the fact that she can't help it

Some transitive verbs can't be followed by a that-

clause alone but only by thefact that:

We cannot ignore the fact that she lied to us

Other examples include:

quote can't bear / stand enjoy express

investigate leave out face

THAT-CLAUSE OR TO-INFINITIVE

We can use a that-clause or to-infinitive after some of

these verbs (agree, hope, pretend, forget, etc.) with

practically no difference in meaning:

He agreed to come He agreed that he would come

1 promise to remember 1 promise that I'll remember

A few verbs can be followed by an object + to-

infinitive (usually to be) This is usually more formal

than the alternative that-clause:

I recognise her to be one 1 recognise that she is one

of our best players of our best players

1 know him to be 1 know that he is

scrupulously honest scrupulously honest

They estimated costs to They estimated that costs

be in the region of £1m were in the region of £1m

Other examples include:

announce confirm discover pronounce feel

wh-clauses

Many verbs commonly followed by a that-clause can also be followed by a wh-clause:

1 didn't know what to do

I can't imagine why they did that

They are sometimes reported questions:

He asked what I was doing

2 VERBS FOLLOWED BY DESCRIBING NOUNS

OR ADJECTIVES

Some verbs are followed by nouns or adjectives that describe the subject Verbs used in this way include those connected with appearance and the senses (appear, look, sound, seem, etc.) and those connected with change (become, remain, grow, turn, etc.):

My father remained a member of the society even afier

they criticised his behavioul:

Other verbs (prove, appear, seem, etc.) are followed

by an adjective or to be + adjective:

The plan proved (to be) unworkable

Some verbs (make, constitute, form, comprise, etc.) are followed by describing noun phrases:

You'll make a rotten teacher - you've no patience This represents a considerable increase in our profits

Some verbs are followed by object + complement

We use most of these verbs in a limited range of collocations:

The jury found him guilty of arson

He knocked him unconscious in the third round

You're dt-iving me crazy!

1 hold you responsiblefor the damage

1 want him caught as soon as possible

A few intransitive verbs can also be followed by adjectives:

lie empty /awake / helpless etc

stand motionless /erect / f i r m /proud / idle etc sit quiet /silent /still etc

die young / happy / intestate etc

escape unharmed etc

pass unnoticed / undetected etc

emerge unscathed / uninjured etc
