Adjectives vs. Verbs #5

Open kachergis opened 2 years ago

kachergis commented 2 years ago

a few languages have "action_words" that are more adjectival, e.g. "be scared" / "be hungry" / "be thirsty" -- any opinion on whether to have multiword unilemmas for these? (e.g. Italian "aver fame", "aver sete", "aver sonno”, and similar in French) I don't think we should just say "hungry", or even (to) "hunger", but not sure if we want "be hungry"
