Intransitive Verbs in Spanish

Hello, Super Learners,

Welcome back to Spanish Super Tutor! I’m Miguel Marina, and today we're going to explore another fascinating aspect of Spanish verbs that will enhance your understanding and fluency. Ready to dive into the world of Intransitive Verbs in Spanish


Why focus on Intransitive Verbs in Spanish?

Grasping the concept of intransitive verbs is crucial as it helps you structure sentences correctly and express your thoughts more naturally. Unlike transitive verbs, intransitive verbs do not require a direct object to complete their meanings, which makes them unique and essential in daily communication.


Delving Into Intransitive Verbs in Spanish

What are Intransitive Verbs?Intransitive verbs are actions that do not pass onto a direct object. This means the action remains with the subject, and completing the action doesn’t necessitate an object.


Examples of Intransitive Verbs in Spanish

  1. Correr (to run)

  • Example: "Él corre en el parque." (He runs in the park.)

  • "Corre" is the verb and it doesn’t pass the action onto a direct object.

  1. Dormir (to sleep)

  • Example: "Yo duermo ocho horas cada noche." (I sleep eight hours every night.)

  • "Duermo" shows the action of sleeping without needing an object to receive the action.

  1. Viajar (to travel)

  • Example: "Nosotros viajamos a España cada verano." (We travel to Spain every summer.)

  • "Viajamos" is another intransitive verb where the action remains with the subject.

  1. Llorar (to cry)

  • Example: "El bebé llora." (The baby cries.)

  • "Llora" does not require a direct object; the crying is the action itself.

  1. Reír (to laugh)

  • Example: "Ellos ríen durante la película." (They laugh during the movie.)

  • "Ríen" is used without a direct object, emphasizing the action of laughing.
