About

These are English words made of a noun and a verb that are ultimately a verb. I just can't find a good list online, and the biggest problem with linguistics is trying to think of relevant examples when you're trying to prove a point.

This may also help with the verb-verb list: https://wordnik.com/lists/verb-verbs
