Question

is this sentence transitive or intransitive? The careful truck driver slowed noticeably in the rain and snow

Answer 1

The sentence "The careful truck driver slowed noticeably in the rain and snow" is intransitive

A transitive sentence is one whose verb directly affects an object contained in that sentence.

An intransitive sentence is one whose verb does not directly affect any object.

In the sentence "The careful truck driver slowed noticeably in the rain and snow", the verb "slowed" does not affect any object directly in the sentence.

The sentence only says that the driver slowed noticeably. There is no indication that the slowness of the driver affected any noun in the sentence.

Therefore, the sentence "The careful truck driver slowed noticeably in the rain and snow" is an intransitive verb
