Hello Alan, Mister Micawber, Beeesneees, Mordant, Esl_Expert and other native English speakers,

----------------------------------------------------
http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/type_1
a person who has, or seems to have, a particular character:
- Jo's not really the sporty type.
- Beth is not the type to make a fuss.
----------------------------------------------------

Can I say "that makes" in place of to make?
