Reference for English verb pattern
For the English verb pattern, select "Intransitive", "Transitive" or "Intransitive/transitive."
"Intransitive/transitive" refers to a verb which functions as an intransitive as well as transitive
verb.
"Transitive" refers to a verb requiring an object. Add an idiom including a preposition or
adverb as a transitive verb if a noun should follow it.
Add an idiom as an intransitive verb, however, if it is added together with an object.
