他動詞・自動詞

This point teaches the difference between transitive verbs (他動詞) and intransitive verbs (自動詞). Transitive verbs require a direct object marked with を, showing that someone or something acts upon something else. Intransitive verbs do not take a direct object; the subject marked with が or は performs or experiences the action, often describing a state or change that occurs by itself. Understanding this distinction helps in choosing the correct verb form and particle in sentences.
