According to Cambridge Online dictionaries, Oxford Advanced learner's dictionaries and many others, 'pry' is an intransitive verb and is usually followed by 'into' and an 'object. A native English teacher wrote to me ... "pry information out of him".
I was then wondering if it can be used in this way - pry as a transitive verb + information + out of + someone.
Thanks a lot
