Wenn Dokumente den *final* bekommen, dann wird es ernst.

Jetzt mal duschen, dann schlafen, morgen nochmals durchlesen und dann

P.S. wer sich den Namen ausgedacht hat, der*die muss immer noch mächtig stolz sein auf sich

Today’s word is another productive way of making verbs:

<N> + ばむ

Roughly: to (begin to) turn into or be the quality of <the noun>.

Note that the “ば” sometimes is hidden within the kanji reading.

E.g.
汗ばむ :: あせばむ – start to get sweaty
黒ばむ :: くろばむ – blacken in color
黄ばむ :: きばむ – turn yellow in color/tinged with age
枯ればむ :: かればむ – begin to wither/dry out

That's perhaps a good reason to consider moving to platforms like , , , , and , and .
