The verbs section is arranged differently than the other vocabulary lessons on this site. Instead of arranging words in terms of a theme, they will be arranged according to the type of object which they take.
The verbs on this page fit the pattern:
This type of verb requires an object. If these verbs appear without an object in the sentence, an object must be understood from the context or have a resultative complement. In English these would be called "transitive verbs"
An example would be the English word "hit". You have to say what is being hit. "The boy hits the girl", "The bat hit the ball", etc. You cannot omit the object. If the object is unknown you can use a generic object "something".
An exception to this would be when the object has a verb complement (an adverb describing how the verb is executed). "He hits." is not acceptable, but "He hits well." is fine. The same is true of the words in Chinese below.
