Could someone, please give the German translations, and then I could give the Hungarians surely. Ferike333 10:05, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

At least one German word must be haengen, and at least one Hungarian must be függ. Ferike333 15:18, 26 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Rfv-sense: "To hang in suspense; to be pending; to be undetermined or undecided; as, a cause depending in court." How can depend be used in this way exactly? ---> Tooironic (talk) 06:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's archaic. Definitely real. See [1]. Equinox 19:12, 13 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

depend 2

Having just cited one archaic sense (see #depend), I'm RFVing another: "To serve; to attend; to act as a dependent or retainer." I searched for phrases like "depend[ing|ed] the king" and didn't find anything, and phrases like "depending on the king" seem to find only the usual senses of "depend", not this sense. - -sche (discuss) 02:19, 3 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Lexicalized loss of /d/ in "depends"[edit]

According to the following article

https://clil.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/100misproounced-words.pdf

However, the Longman Dictionary of Pronunciation disagrees with such info.

Is it just a typographical error? --Backinstadiums (talk) 14:14, 16 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
