Verbing

[Hina Muqadas]

The act of turning a noun into a verb. [Verbing] results in [verbation]. Although in a sense it is the inverse of a gerund, a word that has been [verbed] can actually be turned back into a noun as a gerund. Hence [verbing] is the gerund form of the verbed noun verb.

[Lanell]

The practice of using a noun as a verb.

[Tanya Shivari]

The [grammatical] [choice] of taking a word that is usually a noun and using it a [verb].

[Michiko]

Verbing: v

1. Taking a word that is not a [verb] and turning it into a verb by adding [-ing] to the end.

Comes from the latin word verb meaning an action and the [root] -ing meaning making the word infront of it a verb.
