*'''Transitive''' verbs accept one object. Most Teivo verbs are transitive by default, but a suffix ''-t'' is added to some intransitive verbs in order to make them transitive. The suffix probably comes from the causative suffix ''-tun''. | *'''Transitive''' verbs accept one object.

*'''Ditransitive''' verbs take a subject and two objects. There are two subtypes of these verbs: direct (two direct objects) and indirect (one direct and one indirect object), almost all verbs belonging to the second subtype, while direct verbs are ''iviara'' "to make", ''eatumara'' "to turn into", ''rammanara'' "to name" and some resultative verbs. Since indirect object suffixes are attached close to a verb root, they often influence it by changing vowel length or eliding final consonants, even though most of such instances had been regularized by now. | |||
