transitive because the action moves (crosses) directly from the verb to the object of its action.
b. Verb: is. Verb form: linking. See Verb Forms and Functions, page 40: A linking verb
indicates a state of being or a condition.
c. Verb: tripped. Verb form: intransitive. See Verb Forms and Functions, page 40: The verb is
called intransitive because the action does not go directly to an object or recipient.
d. Verb: hit. Verb form: transitive. See Verb Forms and Functions, page 40: The verb is
