feik (from English fake) is very commonly used ('ak di feik'). Should we add it?

AUTOPARSE feik -o E -b fake v.t. fake. --feik n.

How do we know that this verb is transitive? Maybe it is, but I am just curious. Also, maybe add “feign injury or other condition” to the translation?

Hmm. You're right. It's intransitive.

It can take an object so I thought that made it trans. But trans means not that it can but rather that it must. So it's intransitive.

I might be misremembering, but I seem to remember Josephs writing about transitive verbs having implied direct object even if not expressed. Maybe that was just his opinion or maybe I am just way off. Lol

Maybe one definition is just faking intransitively (playing around), and another is faking transitively (faking something or someone).

Maybe something like

feik -o E -b fake v.t. fake (something or someone); feign (injury or other condition). --feik n. --feik v.i.
