  • I have never heard this word used as a verb. Interesting.

  • Are you saying it's a qroqqa sh*t?

  • qroqqa xitt, please—Maltese spelling

    Actually it's fairly rare. Googling for "flisted you", "flist me", and "flisted me" throw up a certain number of clear occurrences ("flisted" and "flist you" have too much irrelevant interference).

  • Got me, qroqqa! We look forward to some Maltese lists. Please!

  • I don't think it is used as a verb - the verb is to friend.

  • Now flock, on the other hand, is definitely used as both noun and verb on LJ.

    ETA: I am an idiot and still don't know my grammatical terms - flock is not a noun, it's an adjective.
