Be or have: this is the dilemma? Easter in Pisa

We have said that to get past the auxiliary before using transitive verbs (ie those that may have a direct object for which you can ask the question who? What ? ).
Then, however, added that many intransitive verbs (those who can not have a direct object) require the auxiliary have.

It is not easy.
For now we leave you a list of intransitive verbs that prefer to be have, in the next post we try to think about the reason for this choice.
