Aug 2, 2016 at 9:57 | comment | added | oerkelens | In principle, yes, you can, but in some cases the result may not be very well understood. You have to consider semantics (the meaning) of such phrases. A trained dog makes more sense than an understood dog, even if I think I understand what the dog wants. There are probably verbs that can cause trouble, so don't assume this rule has no exceptions (like any "rule" in language!) | |
