Transitive verbs, in Urdu grammar, are a type of verb that can take a direct object. This means the action of the verb is done to someone or something. They express an action and are used to make statements and questions. As with any other language, transitive verbs help in shaping the sentence and add to its meaningful interpretation, offering richness to the language.
