honestly if you wanna spontaneously just turn a word like entropy into a verb by putting an h in it, that should be allowed.

I'm trying to think of what the actual affix would be, and my best answer is genuinely "enentropy"

[–] GiorgioBoymoder@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

that would be a prefix but yeah.

maybe entrope, entropate, entropize

that would be a prefix but yeah.

Prefixes are a type of affix, along with suffixes (and infixes, and circumfixes, though English doesn't have those)

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

In this case you would need two verbs: one for increase and one for decrease.

[–] GiorgioBoymoder@hexbear.net 1 points 10 hours ago

entropate, deentropate.
