§Grammar and usage
A transitive verb such as make needs an object, while an intransitive verb such as arrive does not.
Make जैसी transitive verb को object चाहिए, जबकि arrive जैसी intransitive verb को object नहीं चाहिए।
Only transitive verbs can normally be used in the passive voice, so 'The letter was written' is correct but 'He was arrived' is not.
सामान्यतः केवल transitive verbs ही passive voice में प्रयोग होती हैं, इसलिए 'The letter was written' सही है पर 'He was arrived' गलत है।
