This study aims to understand the different functions of transitive verbs and intransitive verbs and the problems related to them. The quantitative descriptive approach was used in this study by using a questionnaire (questionnaire) designed by the researcher to evaluate teachers’ perceptions towards the different functions of transitive verbs, intransitive verbs, and related problems. This study concluded that the main function of transitive and intransitive verbs is to develop the communication process level by guaranteeing delivering the exact correct meaning of sentences.
