Talk:denote

EN: collocated pronouns
Not infrequently denoted is used in the passive, and followed by by (the most common preposition appearing after denoted), as in British Hansard: So maybe this should be mentioned? Or at least some such example included. Although by is not always needed: The latter might require a new sense to be added to the present entry, as I don't think it's actually passive. —DIV (1.145.27.253 04:25, 18 October 2023 (UTC))
