This one also quickly came to my mind, but in both cases, the zero <br>
prefix includes an object: "excite" is transitive (at least in english) <br>
so anger does indeed scite something or somebody.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It may be transitive, but that doesn't mean it can't be used without an object. The verb "eat" is transitive, but you can certainly say "he eats" without saying what he eats. I think there's no object here: anger excites generally, not anyone in particular.</div><div><br></div></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature">De'vID</div></div>
