用法筆記
Common in imperatives and negative constructions. The transitive sense ('hurry someone') always requires a direct object — you cannot say 'hurry him up' without 'up' for the transitive sense; 'hurry' alone as a transitive verb is less common in modern English outside fixed phrases ('Don't hurry me').
