Remember that "rice" is also a verb?

But I think she would have counted that as one of those "too close" verbs. She's thinking that what we really need is intransitives.

And that alone should solve the beverage problem.

Be a short dinner though.

"Coke" is a verb that has nothing to do with the beverage. (And now that I check the dictionary, it has two completely different verb definitions!)

: yeah, but who wants to drink Coke with dinner? by lm (2.00 / 0) #27 Wed Jan 23, 2008 at 03:13:47 PM EST

I thought of coke after someone brought up vault. But, in general, I'm anti-soft drink at the dinner table. Too bad the verbs coffee and tea are both derived from the respective drinks.
Water, I think, should be granted an exception. ``Watering the flowers'', after all, doesn't always mean pouring water onto the flowers.
