The person or thing that is affected by the action of a transitive verb is the DIRECT OBJECT.
<u>Transitive verbs</u> such as "watch, demand, and see" among others need an object to complete their meaning. If not, the sentence would have no sense. For example, in "I watch" we need to specify what the speaker watches (e.g. TV).
<u>Transitive verbs</u> may have both a direct and an indirect object. Verbs taking both objects are called DITRANSITIVE verbs. For example, "I bought a present for Mary" (being "a present" the direct object and "for Mary" the indirect object.
The person or thing that is affected by the action of a transitive verb is the object.
Explanation:
A transitive verb is a verb that is use alongside an object, whether it be a noun or a pronoun or even a phrase. The validity of a transitive verb depends on the availability of the object.
Transitive verbs need an object to work but intransitive verbs can work well on its own. Transitive verbs need something or someone to transfer its action to, while intransitive verbs need no such object. But, if the object is missing for the transitive verb, then the whole sentence becomes invalid or incomplete.
