Starting to mean something, however, is a single action
Weeeeellll, it could be argued that it's a process, really. The starting of the meaning continuing up to some arbitrary usage by, say, a set proportion of a population, or whatever. Until it reaches this quota, it could still be said to be in the process of starting to mean something, with the provision that it may cease to continue meaning that in the future, depending on how things pan out, or actually mean that thing, that starting having progressed to really meaning.
Whatchooreckon? And don't you have work to do neither? (That's knee-ther, as well, not nigh-ther, OK?) |
