What's the difference between "è diventata" and "hai diventata"? Is "hai diventata" wrong?
It looks like diventare is a motion verb. For motion verbs, essere is always the auxiliary verb used in the passato prossimo. A list of 15 motion verbs is here: https://quizlet.com/130647908/italian-verbs-of-motion-flash-cards/
When the adjective comes before the noun (i.e., "bella donna"), it's usually seen as more emphatic. When saying "She has become a beautiful woman," it feels more natural, but both are correct.
With this verb tense, why is the verb "to be" sometimes correct and the verb "to have" sometimes correct (e.g., e diventata, not ha diventata)?

Bambina was marked wrong. This sentence in no way suggests the girl in question is a teenager. I almost never consider DL to be 'wrong', but I think they are wrong on this one. :-(
what is the difference between diventare and divenire (diventato/ divenuto respectively)?
"Diventare" is more common, you can always use it.
"Divenire" is used less often. I wouldn't learn the cases where you can or can't use it, and would rather stick to "diventare"

Am i totally wrong or is diventare occassionally treated as a transitive verb?
