00 I met a paragraph concerning Latin Dances. It's like the below. 02 br
02 br
00 The shoulder line , however, is still straight. Therefore, the sides of the *torso are unequal; The left side is stretched long, while the right side is shorter. Line shows the clockwise rotation of the hips 01 u 01 font 00 resulting 02 font 02 u 00 from the straight knee and hip 01 u 01 font 00 being pushed 02 font 02 u 00 backwards while the bent knee and hip 01 font 01 u 00 push 02 u 00 02 font 00 forward. 02 br
02 br
00 ➳First Question. 02 br
02 br
00 In the last sentence, the verb, 'push' is used both 'transtively (being pushed)' and 'intranstively (push).' Isn't it a bit inconsistent, and shouldn't we change one of two? 02 br
02 br
00 I mean, if we use 'being pushed,' we should change underlined 'pushed' to 'is pushed.' or if we don't want to change underlined 'pushed,' we should change 'being pushed' to 'pushing.' Please help me. 02 br
02 br
00 ➳Second Question. 02 br
02 br
00 I know 'result' is used only intranstively, but isn't there any chance of using 'result' as transtive verb, so the use of 'resulted' can be possible in the above sentence. (Am I too picky? Sorry if I am, but in the sense of non-native and Korean speaker intranstive verb 'result' is too complicating!) 0-
