I climbed {up/down/over/in}. I I climbed climbed {up/down/over/in} {up/down/over/in} I climbed up/down/over/in. Comment: With a directional particle, the verb can apply to any established object, e.g. a tree, a fence, the back of a truck - so this is not the same as the regular Omitted Object alternation with climb, which implies 'climbing (up)' (e.g. 'climbing (up) a mountain'). |
