Abstract
Transitivity was introduced in A6 as a determining factor in the formation of passives. It is discussed in more detail in A8 as a fundamental feature in different types of clauses. In this section it is investigated as a characteristic of verbs. The main question is: to what extent can verbs be characterised as transitive or intransitive?
