Transitive Verb
noun
Remember how 動詞 means "verb"? When the verb is done to some other thing, it's a transitive verb.
That means it takes a direct object. Verbs like 食べる, 使う, and 上げる are transitive verbs because they need a direct object, an "other" thing, to receive their action.
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well.
他動詞は目的語を取ります。
Transitive verbs take objects.
ここに書いてある他動詞を全部自動詞に書きかえてください。
Please change all of these transitive verbs into intransitive verbs.

Is memorization the only way to learn if the verb is transitive or intransitive?
