“Timorous” is one of the words I can never type without typing “Timothy” first, then backtrack and type the proper word. “Time” is another one of those and comes up a lot more often. My fingers’ motor memory overrides my brain everytime, i.e. my fingers type faster than my brain can give orders to them. The reason for this is that my fingers have typed “Timo” or “Timothy” more often than “time” and that I am emotionally attached to “Timo”. Do I need to spell it out (pun intended)? My son is called Timothy, or Timo for short.

Now he was never a really timid or timorous boy so it took some digging to find a photo of him looking timorously. BTW: He will be 32 this month.
I know “intransitive” in the grammatical meaning but that is really difficult to illustrate in a photo. An intransitive is “not aiming at anything”; i.e. has no object.
So here it is, an arrow being intransitive: not aiming at going up (considering it is at the bottom of a tower) nor aiming at the money box (because that was way over the other side).
An intransitive arrow. Not pointing at anything. Just pointing.
I saw the prompt and knew I wanted to use this photo:
Not the best photo but the whiskers are really strong and prominent.
However Henry, our cat, had none of it. He immediately came and showed off his whiskers:
And he didn’t consider it beneath him to show a bit of his teeth as well.
