Which sentence ending would make the verb pushed intransitive?

Here's how to understand intransitive verbs and how to make the verb "pushed" intransitive:

* Intransitive Verbs: These verbs don't need a direct object. They express an action that is complete in itself.

Examples:

* The bird flew.

* The sun set.

* She laughed.

To make "pushed" intransitive, you need to remove the need for a direct object. Here's an example:

* "The crowd pushed forward."

In this sentence:

* "Pushed" is the verb.

* "Forward" is a direction, not a direct object. The crowd is pushing in a direction, but it's not pushing *something*.
