1. 1(文法)作及物動詞用地;(數學/邏輯)遞移地、傳遞地。台灣文法課直接講「及物」「當及物動詞使用」,很少把副詞形譯出來;數學課則說「遞移律」(transitive)。

    An adverb meaning 'in a transitive way'. In grammar, it describes a verb being used WITH an object: 'break' is used transitively in 'I broke the cup', because the breaking lands on something.

    An adverb meaning 'in a transitive way'.是個副詞,意思是「以及物的方式」 In grammar,在文法上 it describes a verb being used WITH an object:形容一個動詞被「帶著受詞」使用 'break' is used transitively in 'I broke the cup'在'I broke the cup'裡,break就是transitively用的 because the breaking lands on something因為這個「打破」的動作,有個對象承受

    Used , the same verb takes no object: 'The cup broke.' The adverb is mostly a grammar-book and teacher's word — 'this verb is normally used transitively', 'here, run is used transitively: she runs a restaurant'. You will meet it in dictionaries, in grammar explanations, and in your teacher's speech, not in conversation.

    Used intransitively,如果是intransitively(不及物)用 the same verb takes no object:同一個動詞就不帶受詞 'The cup broke.'「The cup broke.」(杯子破了) The adverb is mostly a grammar-book and teacher's word這個副詞大多是文法書和老師會用的字 'this verb is normally used transitively'像「這個動詞通常是及物用法」 'here, run is used transitively: she runs a restaurant'或「這裡run是及物用法:she runs a restaurant(她經營一家餐廳)」 You will meet it in dictionaries, in grammar explanations, and in your teacher's speech你會在字典、文法說明,還有老師的講解裡遇到它 not in conversation而不是在對話裡

    There is a second, quite separate life in mathematics and logic, where a relation is transitive if it carries through a chain: if A equals B and B equals C, then A equals C 'transitively'. Programmers borrow that sense too — a 'transitively required' library is one your library needs, so you end up needing it as well.

    There is a second, quite separate life in mathematics and logic在數學和邏輯裡,還有第二種完全不同的用法 where a relation is transitive if it carries through a chain:一個關係如果能沿著一條鏈傳下去,就叫transitive if A equals B and B equals C, then A equals C 'transitively'如果A等於B、B等於C,那麼A就「transitively」等於C Programmers borrow that sense too工程師也借用這個意思 a 'transitively required' library is one your library needs一個「transitively required」的函式庫,就是你用的函式庫所需要的那個 so you end up needing it as well所以你最後也會需要它

    Same underlying picture in both: something passing across from one thing to the next.

    Same underlying picture in both:兩種用法底層的畫面是一樣的 something passing across from one thing to the next某個東西從一件事傳到下一件事

core核心畫面

組成transitive + -ly, the ending that makes an adverb. Inside 'transitive': trans- 'across' + -it- from Latin ire 'to go' — so an action that 'goes across' from the doer to something else.
