Hey everyone, sorry for the double post. This might be a question better served for the Off Topic board, but...well...I have a grammar question for those with a better education than me: [hider=Jargon Ahead]You see, after finishing my last post, I noticed a few of the words seemed very slightly incorrect and I didn't know why. After some investigation I was lead to learning the difference between intransitive verbs and transitive verbs. Now, in most cases of grammar like this, I tend to have already learnt the pattern before I learn the rule. This was no exception but for a lovely quirk of English (that language we all LOVE): Not all verbs can be used as transitive and intransitive and there are sometimes separate words with equivalent meanings but are used only in transitive or intransitive cases. The two examples in my post that caught my eye in the first place were: Rose/raised and laid/lied. But I feel like I'm in a minefield right now, because I don't know if there are any other pairs of verbs like this with equivalent meanings and different transitivitudismivity. Can anyone direct me to a list of these paired words for English? It's not a big deal but it would make my life slightly more comfortable. And before you ask, yes, I've looked into what ambitransivity, di/tritransivity, valence, and labile verbs are. As I see it, they don't really help my specific situation right now.[/hider]
