What is this type of verbs called?
What do you call verbs like find, make, paint,... when they are used in these sentences? (Verb + Object + Adjective)
I find it difficult to wake up early.
She made me embarrassed.
They paint the gate red.
I don't think they are linking verbs because linking verbs directly connect a subject with an adjective (he seems happy).
So, what are they?
Thank you for your answers.

The two basic categories of verbs are transitive (take an object) and intransitive (no object). Your sentences above all have an object.
