<h3>Definition of transitive and intransitive verbs</h3>
Transitive verbs have an object, that is, a noun or phrase that is affected by the action indicated by the verb. Intransitive verbs, on the other hand, do not have an object.
Take a look at the examples below:
She showed me her new car.
They laughed.
In the first sentence, the verb "show" has two objects, "me" and "new car". Both are affected by the action. Just ask, "She showed what?" She showed someone something.
In the second sentence, there is no object. If you ask, "They laughed what?", you will have no answer. The question wouldn't even make sense.

Sentence fragments are groups of words that look like sentences, but really aren't. To be a sentence, groups of words need to have at least one independent clause. This however does not have a independent clause.
