I found the above explanation in the book "Oxford Guide to English Grammar"
"After some transitive verbs we can leave out the object when it would add little or nothing to the meaning."
My question is, would you still call them Transitive?
What about the below example
Our cat lived till he was 10
In the above example, the verb "lived" without the object (the life)" which is left out as per the above explanation given in the book. So, is the word "lived" in the above example a Transitive?
I asked this question along with another question here Transitive verbs vs. Intransitive verbs but that is not answered yet. So that I'm separately asking here now.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
