As we have seen, what distinguishes an intransitive verb from a<br />

transitive verb is primarily the number of noun or noun phrases that<br />

occur with it in a sentence. Often, however, we find that an intransitive<br />

verb can be transformed into a transitive verb using certain<br />

mechanisms. Ways in which we can do this are discussed below.<br />

Adding an object<br />

The verb membaca (to read) can be used as an intransitive verb or as a<br />

transitive verb without changing its form. It is the addition of an object<br />

that makes it transitive.<br />
