Abstract

In Japanese,there are various consistencies in transitive and intransitive verbs.Such features help to memorize vocabularies,understand semantic meaning and master sentence structure.But transitive verbs and intransitive ones are not always corresponding as one-to-one.They often appear complicated non-corresponding phenomena,such as word form,number,gender,meaning,word-building,etc.which affect understanding and applying the association usage of grammatical exchange of verbs,the gender of the compound verbs and defining the part of speech of sa-hen verbs.
