Many such verbs, however, are of such meaning that they can govern an indirect object, which will, of course, be in the dative case (--45). Learn the following list of intransitive verbs with their meanings. In each case the dative indirect object is the person or thing to which a benefit, injury, or feeling is directed.(Cf. --43.) >, _believe_ (give belief to) >, _favor_ (show favor to) >, _injure_ (do harm to) >, _obey_ (give obedience to) >, _persuade_ (offer persuasion to) >, _resist_ (offer resistance to) >, _be eager for_ (give attention to) <154.>> RULE. > _The dative of the indirect object is used with the intransitive verbs >, >, >, >, >, >, >, and others of like meaning._ <155.>> EXERCISE 1.
