vegs

"3rd person singular present indicative of veg#Verb."

Attestable? How pronounced?

For that matter is the noun plural attestable?

The word "vegs" (alternative spelling of veges) is pronounced like /vɛdʒɪz/. 3rd person singular form would likely to be attestable, like the plural form. 176.88.85.16 15:32, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

This seems to act like an abbreviation: the actual pronunciation and morphology is for the expanded form, not what's actually written. Chuck Entz (talk) 16:07, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Shouldn't we be nice to our users and provide, in cases like this where the pronunciation isn't obvious to a learner, the pronunciation that we believe to be the one in use. Do we have a policy against providing pronunciation of inflected forms? DCDuring (talk) 18:11, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

@DCDuring: I don’t see why we shouldn’t provide the pronunciation where it is unexpected. — Sgconlaw (talk) 19:52, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Agreed. In fact the same pronunciation /vɛdʒɪz/ should be given for vegs(verb) and vegs(noun). Overlordnat1 (talk) 23:02, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
