transitive

transitive
Tính từ

In linguistics, this term describes a specific structural requirement of a verb. A transitive verb cannot stand alone with a subject; it must transfer its action to a receiver, known as the direct object. This creates a clear distinction from intransitive verbs, which express an action that does not affect an object, such as "sleep" or "arrive."

In mathematical and logical contexts, the term describes a specific type of binary relation. It defines a chain of connectivity where a property is passed from one element to another. If the relationship exists between A and B, and between B and C, the transitive property ensures it also exists between A and C, as seen in "greater than" or "equal to" relationships.
