transativ

Transativ is a term used in linguistics to describe a type of verb that can take both a direct object and an indirect object. In other words, a transativ verb can express two objects in a single clause: one that receives the action (the direct object) and another that experiences the effect of the action (the indirect object). This is in contrast to intransitive verbs, which do not take any objects, and transitive verbs, which take only a direct object.

For example, in the sentence "She gave him a book," the verb "gave" is transitive because it takes a direct object ("a book"). However, it is also transative because it takes an indirect object ("him"), which indicates the recipient of the action. In this case, "him" is the indirect object, and "a book" is the direct object.

Transativ verbs are relatively rare in English, but they can be found in certain contexts, such as when expressing giving, sending, or showing actions. The term "transativ" is not as widely used as "transitive" or "ditransitive," but it is recognized in some linguistic theories and analyses.
