Okay, sometimes (just sometimes) I think that I know what people mean when
they say "transitive" from the context of the conversation but I think I
could do with an explanation.

Linguistics was not one of my skool subjects :-)

If this strays too far off topic for "tlhIngan-Hol@.." then feel free to
mail me direct but I think a short explain would help those of us without
huge dictionaries to hand ;-)
