feik #360

Closed johnbent closed 1 year ago

johnbent commented 1 year ago

feik (from English fake) is very commonly used ('ak di feik'). Should we add it?

Gnalu commented 1 year ago

should be helpful. :-)

AUTOPARSE feik -o E -b fake v.t. fake. --feik n.

How do we know that this verb is transitive? Maybe it is, but I am just curious. Also, maybe add “feign injury or other condition” to the translation?

Hmm. You're right. It's intransitive.

It can take an object so I thought that made it trans. But trans means not that it can but rather that it must. So it's intransitive.

I might be misremembering, but I seem to remember Josephs writing about transitive verbs having implied direct object even if not expressed. Maybe that was just his opinion or maybe I am just way off. Lol

So maybe it is trans then. If I say, “I’m just faking,” then there is an implied object. I’m faking someone.

Maybe one definition is just faking intransitively (playing around), and another is faking transitively (faking something or someone).

ChrisPerrette commented 1 year ago

Maybe something like

feik -o E -b fake v.t. fake (something or someone); feign (injury or other condition). --feik n. --feik v.i.

johnbent commented 1 year ago

AUTOPARSE w -o E -b fake feik v.t. fake (something or someone); feign (a feeling, state, or injury).
