I was gonna say that. Only not referring to a spellchecker or my dad, but just plainly. The word “unicycle” does only exist as a noun, not as a verb (according to the linguists, we know better of course). And a noun cannot be inflicted like that.
Unless of course you support the statement “Any noun can be verbed”.
Once a word is expressed, it exists. So, if I make up a word in my mind and share it here, then it exists, right?
One of my pet peeves is hearing managers try to sound intelligent by using big words, only to misuse them. Also, I’ve noticed that this word misuse spreads like a virus among managers because I’ll often hear multiple managers misuse the same word.
