Usage notes
The modern past tense of (m) is (m). Originally it was (m), similarly to pairs such as (m)/(m), (m)/(m), (m)/(m), (m)/(m), or (m)/(m). However, (m) was long ago co-opted as the past tense of (m) (replacing (etyl) (m)) and using it as the past tense of (m) is now considered archaic.Synonyms
