An intransitive complete verb is a verb that does not require a direct object to complete its meaning in a sentence. It expresses a complete action or state without transferring that action to an object. In other words, the action or state described by an intransitive complete verb is self-contained within the subject of the sentence. Examples of intransitive complete verbs include "sleep," "arrive," "run," "laugh," and "exist."
