Hi! Is this true in general? I can't come up with any counterexamples off the top of my mind, but it seems that the transitive/intransitive counterparts of many verbs switch verb groups also. 倒れる -> 倒す, 冷える -> 冷やす, 燃える -> 燃やす, 売る -> 売れる and etc. Even if there are exceptions, this is a pretty common pattern, right? When trying to to come up with the transitive/intransitive version of the verb, is it safe to assume that the verb group would change also?
P.S. The title should really say "Transitivity switch means godan-ichidan switch?"
P.S.S. OK, there's 乾く and 乾かす
