A man was holding a strange musical instument at a party. A boy was pointing at the musical instruement and said "Sir, can you show me how to play?"
I think "play" is a transitive verb in the above context, it must has a direct object. I think he should say "Sir, can you show me how to play it?" Am I right?
Thanks.
