New page

This page is for intransitive verbs.

In general, an intransitive verb is a verb that does not have an object. This is opposed to a transitive verb that does have an object:

# I ate.
# I ate the cake.

In the first example, "ate" is an intransitive verb because there is no object. In the second example, "cake" is an object, so "ate" in that case is a transitive verb. See also the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intransitive_verb Wikipedia article on intransitive verbs].

According to David Beck ([https://books.google.com/books?id=3B9twxY-7k8C&pg=PA30&lpg=PA30&dq=adjectives+lushootseed&source=bl&ots=A3uNrXvPKJ&sig=xZt422ivpOc9Tg9uwip4-fVTJUE&hl=en&sa=X&ei=79dfVej_AsvHogS1kYCwDQ&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=adjectives%20lushootseed&f=false The Typology of Parts of Speech Systems: The Markedness of Adjectives] and [https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=7&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CD0QFjAG&url=http://journals.uvic.ca/index.php/WPLC/article/viewFile/5110/2019&ei=79dfVej_AsvHogS1kYCwDQ&usg=AFQjCNEkXYzxSjuq5DgefIXys7tPQYNvPg&bvm=bv.93990622,d.cGU Transitivity and Causation in Lushootseed Morphology] (PDF download)), Lushootseed has no or few adjectives. English words that correspond to adjectives such as [[qələb]]/[[saʔ]] ([[bad]]) and [[x̌ibəč̓]] ([[black]]) are therefore listed as intransitive verbs.

There are a small number of words such as [[luƛ̓]] ([[old]]) and [[haʔł]] ([[good]]) that are listed as adjectives for the time being.
