Talk:come round

RFV discussion: August 2013–April 2014
Rfv-sense: To make a regular circuit.
 * What day does the garbage man come round?

I don't think this is distinguishable in real usage from another sense "To visit one's home or other regular place". DCDuring TALK 14:00, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
 * To me there are some connotations of stopping at a place as part of a regular run or circuit, for example, the bus coming round to pick people up, or the postman coming round, or the district nurse coming round to check on grandma. But maybe you're right: maybe it is the same sense as "Want to see my new driveway? - Yeah, I'll come round for a look." If so, the "other regular place" part of the definition needs to be clarified.

 * I think I didn't state my objection clearly. My problem is that the usage example could easily fit the sense "to visit someone's home or other regular place".
 * In "regular place" I would include place of work, study, or regular attendance, a neighborhood, a club, etc. I don't know what other words would help, but would be happy to hear suggestions. DCDuring TALK  11:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

RFV failed, sense removed. I've moved the usex to the other sense. —Ruakh TALK 18:17, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
