The problem is, there ain't any example. For example, my textbook will only show:
要ります - Need
調べます - Investigate/Inspect
直します - Correct
修理します - Repair
電話します - Make a phone call
And for that reason, I have to ask my teacher one by one but sometimes he find it difficult to explain as well. And also, I won't be returning to school untill around April so I need to revise by myself for now.
By the way, I am curious if I can use とらえる when I want to say "to catch a thief"?
