Could someone give me a sample sentence containing 爱 taking 2 objects?
I'm guessing it's << I'd love him to [do ...] >> type of construction? Thank you. HH
(from Wikipedia) 一价动词：强制要求与一种性质的名词性词语关联的一类动词。可记为动1。例如“病、醉、休息、游泳”等。这类动词差不多就是一般说的不及物动词。
二价动词：强制要求与两种性质的名词性词语关联的一类动词。可记为动2。例如“爱、采、参观、讨论”等。这类动词差不多就是一般说的及物动词。
三价动词：强制要求与三种性质的名词性词语关联的一类动词。可记为动3。例如“爱、采、参观、讨论”等。这类动词差不多就是一般说的双宾动词。[1]
一价动词(动1):
This is intransitive verbs, which means, verbs that cannot have an object attached to them.
Example: 我病了。 -> I am sick. (No object and cannot have an object)
二价动词(动2):
