Thank you Mr Samir for raising this question discussion

Here is an extract from Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English 5th Edition

As you can see, when "open" is used with shops , restaurants...., etc. (things that customers usually go to), the verb is intransitive

I think the matter is clear now.
Again thank you Mr Samir

Dear Mr.H0riz0n,
You quoted definition No. 6 under the entry OPEN in the dictionary

Please Go up one notch and read definition No. 5 which deals with shops, offices, restaurants, etc

What do you think? I think it`s more likely to be definiton No. 5

I need your opinion

Best regards

Dear Mr Essam

Here I quoted both Definitions :No 5 & No 6

As you can see

In Defintion No 5
"Open" can be used both Intransively and Transively
The subject can be people who operate the shops or the shops themselves.
None of the examples given by the dictionary are in the passive form. (I know it is a dictionary not a grammar text book. Al least a dictionary uses the most common language)

In definition No 6:

The subject of "open" is only shops, restauratnts ....etc.
The dectionary here says that the verb is "intransitive".

What do you think now, away from grammar argument, the appropriate usage of "open" is, if you are going to coin a sentence of your own?

Awaiting for your answer.
