Turning an Intransitive Verb Transitive

Question

What is meant by the method of forming the transitive [verb] mentioned in the “Amad-nama” (an elementary primer of Persian verb conjugation)?

Answer

What is meant is the method of turning an intransitive verb (lazim) into a transitive one (muta‘addi) — that is, a verb whose action is complete with [only] the subject (fa‘il) alone is to be made transitive, so that it is also connected with a direct object (maf‘ul bih).
