Hi bepleased;

This is a fairly advanced topic in English. It is best to learn the basics first, and then progress to advanced topics.

For example, you need to ask:

Are the verbs conduct (not conduce), perform and complete causative verbs in the sentences:

The company conducted a survey...

You can read about causative verbs here.

After you read the paragraph on "Causative verbs," then you should be able to answer this question yourself. If you still have a problem, then post another question.

All the best.

Hi AlpheccaStars,

Causative verbs have a force to have the receivers of its action to feel the force from themselves.

I consider that all verbs in English are based on the only two basics-----one is causative verbs and another anti-causative verbs.

And anti-causative verbs only to express a state or an reaction to , so it has no receiver but a cause for the action of itself.

For example:

I have an idea. ----An idea cause me to feel in the mind.

I have some good news. -----Some good news has me to get into the stated state of possession.

obey / fulfill a promise -----the actor gets into the action of obey / fulfill, as a result of a promise;

[conduct] consists of

+ [duct];

= together;

[duct] = to lead;

[conduct] = to lead together----we can find a force to do on its receiver, so it is causative verb;

[complete] consists of [com] + [plete];

[com] = together, with

[plete] = to fill or full ;

[complete] = to have to be filled with -----so, it is causative verb, too;

I need your inspect and tell me if it is correct or not.

Thank you for your assistance in strength.

obey / fulfill a promise -----the actor gets into the action of obey / fulfill, as a result of a promise;

no idea, no having;

---in an idea I have;

no good news, no having / obtaining / receiving;

-----in good news I have;

no promise, no obeying / fulfilling ;

-----in a promise I obey / fulfill;

I learn English.-----

In English I learn; ----No Engoish, no my learning;

In doing we learn.

No doing, no our learning;

Hi;

I don't think you read the link I sent. Certainly you do not understand causative verbs. In a sentence with a causative verb, its object changes state or performs some action. The same verb can be causative or not - it depends on the sentence.

I have an idea. (Have is not a causative verb. The object, idea, did not change state or do any action).

He had his car washed. (Have is a causative verb. The object, his car, changed from dirty to clean. Wash is the action).

He made a cake. (Make is not a causative verb. The cake did not do anything or change.)

My mother made me sit in the corner. (Make is a causative verb because the object, me, performed an action (sit in the corner.)

I have never heard of an anti-causative verb.

Perhaps you mean a stative verb (describes the state of something), in contrast with a dynamic verb, which expresses activity.

You cannot determine if a verb is causative or not by an etymological analysis. You have to look at the sentence that is in.

Hi AlpheccaStars,

As your saying: He made a cake. (Make is not a causative verb. The cake did not do anything or change.)

Why not [make] is not a causative verb?

[he] was the cause of [a cake], so [he] acted as a dominator to [the cake], and the action of making called for a causative verb might be right.

At least "Causative verbs" should be half the whole verbs or more not only limited in the teeny like in grammar.

Because a human line is an organized faculties. So, it must be in a solid body inside, and all life in the world is also.

We know no solid no life, and no life is in a plane but a point of death in electrocardiogram.

And the interpretation in a result of human lines is the same as a plane in electrocardiogram.

Each words in a sentence has its only position of logic language, in which the life meaning is formed.

If let it in a plane like as the grammar does, the life meaning can not be formed.(life meaning can provide with a strong reason for getting into the mind of the speaker to see the mentanlty and connotation of the line.)

So, the translations in Orient fairly can not meet with the mind of native speaker, and become an innovation to their own way in the thought of language.

If we make it a diagram, we might find they are a new mutant not meet with native speakers'.
