a verb that requires both a direct object and an additional complement or object that provides more information or further specifies the action
What is a "complex transitive verb"?
A complex transitive verb is a type of verb that requires both a direct object and one or more additional elements, such as an object complement, to complete its meaning. The object complement can provide further information about the direct object, often describing its state or identity. For example, in the sentence "They consider him a genius," the verb "consider" is complex transitive because it requires both the direct object "him" and the object complement "a genius" to convey a complete thought. Complex transitive verbs are important for expressing more detailed relationships between the action and the objects involved in a sentence.
