What are transitive and intransitive verbs?

Transitive and intransitive verbs refer to whether or not the verb uses a direct object.

•Transitive verbs are verbs that use a direct object.

•Intransitive verbs are verbs that do not use a direct object.
A verb can be described as transitive or intransitive based on whether or not it requires
an object to express a complete thought. A transitive verb is one that makes sense
only if it exerts its action on an object. An intransitive verb will make sense without an
object. Some verbs can be used both ways.

How to identify a transitive verb

Transitive verbs are not just verbs that can take an object; they demand objects.
Without an object to affect, the sentence that a transitive verb inhabits will not seem
complete.

example:
Please bring coffee.

What is subject-verb agreement?

Subject-verb agreement, also called “subject-verb concord,” refers to matching the subject
and verb of a sentence in tense, aspect, and mood (abbreviated as TAM), which translates
to number, person, and gender.

English doesn’t use grammatical gender (except for pronouns), and only the verb be
changes based on whether it’s first, second, or third person. That means most English
subject-verb agreement is about quantity: if the subject is singular, the verb must be
singular; if the subject is plural, the verb must be plural.

Even this can get confusing, though, because talking in the first-person singular (“I climb
the fence”) uses the same verb format as talking in the first-person plural (“We climb the
fence”). Aside from the verb be, subject-verb agreement in English adapts verbs to the
third-person singular (“It climbs the fence”).
Usage and subject-verb agreement examples
Basically, most subjects except third-person singular use the standard form of a verb in
the present tense.

What is a Coordinating Conjunction?

Coordinating Conjunctions are words used to connect words, phrases, and independent
clauses. We use coordinating conjunctions when we want to put equal emphasis on the
words, phrases, or independent clauses that we are connecting.

The words you’ll never forget!

Coordinating conjunctions are limited to a few words that can easily be remembered with
a simple acronym: FANBOYS

Adjective and adverb

An adjective is a word or set of words that modifies (i.e., describes) a noun or pronoun.
Adjectives may come before the word they modify.
Examples:
That is a cute puppy.

An adverb is a word or set of words that modifies verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
Adverbs answer how, when, where, why, or to what extent—how often or how much (e.g.,
daily, completely).
Examples:
He speaks slowly (tells how)
