My own translations will be literal. Notice I used を every time I used the transitive form 始める.
1. trans. I started judo when I was 10.
2. intrans. The movie started 5 minutes ago.
3. trans. Now (I am) starting the class.
4. trans. I'm thinking of starting (studying) German in college.
5. intrans. The moment I met you, love started.
6. trans. I have just started (studying) Japanese.
