Eg

- Many intransitive verbs describe physical behavior or movement:
- As the boys arrived, the girls left.
- The wind subsided, the sun came out and the water receded.
- My shares have collapsed, so I'm going to have to economise.
- His whole body was aching and his medical condition was deteriorating.

- His whole body was aching and his medical condition was deteriorating.
- She wept bitterly on hearing this news.
- Note from the last example that intransitive verbs are often followed by a prepositional or adverbial phrase which provides more information about the action - when it occurs, where it occurs, how it occurs, what direction it takes, etc. Compare the following:
- I arrived at the station at a quarter past three.
- He traveled south with all possible speed.
- Katie was standing in the corner and Justin was lying on the bed.
- It happened yesterday. Vicky had behaved quite unacceptably.
- She could not remain in her company, so she turned and rushed out of the room.
which does not take any object
