@Vininn126 Several of the definitions say "intransitive" but have an accusative object listed. I'm having a particularly hard time with #5 "to move on (to begin to be in a higher position or rank)" labeled with "[acc = what] + [do(gen) or na(acc) = on to what]". What does the accusative object mean? Benwing2 (talk) 06:45, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Benwing2 This is a quirk of a few -jść Polish verbs. There are even articles and I've discussed this much on Discord! Basically the accusative here is more like an adverbial argument; in Polish a verb is considered "transitive" if the passive can be formed, and przejść, obejść, cannot form passive constructions. I hope the new glosses help. Vininn126 (talk) 09:28, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
