Thread:User talk:CodeCat/Perfective and imperfectie forms/reply (9)

In Dutch, diminutives are predictable and every noun has one, as long as semantics permit.

You can't compare it with paper dictionaries because they don't have categories, they only have soft redirects. Why would anyone want to look up only the imperfective verbs that are less common than the perfective equivalent? And if they do, would people not also want to look up the perfective verbs that are more common than the imperfective equivalent? If we're going to categorise, why categorise the "form" but not the "base"? If you want to be consistent, you should create a category for šmrkati too, then.

I still very much doubt the use of any of these categories, and I don't understand what use you see in them, despite all your attempts. You've yet to give a real use case that would lead to someone wanting to look up specifically all the imperfective verbs that are the less-common one of each pair of verbs. What's the use?
