Just finished reading the WOLP, and it struck me how close Miss Havisham come to a very sticky end with the run-in with the verbisoids. She started singing Jerusalem, BUT in a croaky and out of tune manner! That was nearly her downfall.
She explained to Thursday that you were safe with an irregular verb, but what if the verbisoids had seen the singing (irregular) as warbling (regular!)?
That was just asking for trouble!
Anyway, loved the books and wanted to say Hi!

Or even crooning, serenading, or vocalizing.
