Zach WeinersmithIs there a word for actions for which there's no single verb? E.g. something can "catch fire" but not "fire-ify" or something can be "colored blue" but not "blue-ify" or someone can "get angry" but not "angry-fy." As opposed to "he changed" "he exploded" "he messaged me"
Lizard@ZachWeinersmith Of course, most nouns can be verbed. ("Verbing weirds language": Calvin)
I think "got fired" for "got ignited" would be confusing because "fired" has a well-known context regarding employment, so that's why it's not used.
