Additional definition needed?[edit]

I believe that this can also mean something like "to lose", "to outpace", or "to shake off" (a pursuer). See definition 3 here: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/abhaengen_schwaches_Verb Khromegnome (talk) 12:40, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think Duden tends to be more prescriptive, while English Wiktionary is more descriptive. This means cross-referencing with Linguee might also make sense, so consider also https://www.linguee.com/english-german/search?source=auto&query=abh%C3%A4ngen when deciding about adding definitions. --Hugovdm (talk) 13:36, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
