"This machine incorporates energy-saving parts that ensure a great reduction in power consumption." The energy-saving parts reduces the power consumption of this machine.

I think it is right to say that an intransitive verb can't have a passive form and I think the words "sleep" and "vanish" are intransitive verbs. I think it also is correct to say that for a transitive verb the participle part of what seems to be a passive verb could be an adjective as in "His work is done." Here, I think the participle "done" in what seems (looks) to be the passive verb form "is done" is an adjective. Going back to the issue of intransitive verbs and what I think are two examples, the words "sleep" and "vanish," would you say these are not correct? 1. He is vanished. 2. He is slept. I think no. 2 is incorrect,...http://www.englishforums.com/English/4QuestionsThankYou/lwkgw/post.htmTue, 03 Nov 2009 23:19:17 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:961035alc242http://www.englishforums.com/English/4QuestionsThankYou/lwkgw/post.htmhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-961035.xml1 I have 10 gigabytes of music/worth of music. 2 The hot water isn't on at a max at its boiling hot, so imagine if it was on the hottest. 3 Dishwashing soap needs water to bubble./lather. if you use it dry it won't work. 4 Do the dishes in three steps, first scrub and get all the grease out than rinse and finally go back in detail and make sure its spotless.
