tawa as a transitive verb

Do you remember how I said tawa doesn't have an e after it because nothing is being done to an object? Well, that's true, but tawa can have objects, like this:

mi tawa e kiwen.   I'm moving the rock.
ona li tawa e len mi.   She moved my clothes.

tawa can be used as an action verb in these situations because there is an object. Something has done an action on something else; that was not the case with tawa in other example sentences.
