That's exactly how it works in German.
Gebäude ("built") for building
Gemälde ("painted") for painting
Gedichte ("thing that was said") for poem
No, built is "gebaut" not "Gebäude". The "Ge- -e" circumfix is unrelated to the past participle. It can also be used with nouns, see "Gebirge" (range of mountains) from "Berg" (mountain)
This is less of a brag and more a question for the philosoraptor.
Edit: Apologies... didn't even notice that [email protected] beat me to this observation.
I think I would've used the philosoraptor instead to make this meme. The idea guy isn't typically used to ask questions. [Edit: I see it's been changed to philosoraptor, nice !👌]
Wrong meme, my guy.
Why are they called gaming laptops when they don’t play the games themselves?
I want to see a laptop capable of fully simulating how pro gamers truly react. AI on its own right now isn't there yet but monitor manufacturers are implementing "basically cheating" features in that direction.

Driveway. Parkway.
Buildway?
And if there’s a highway, why don’t they talk about it on c|trees
(And why doesn’t the markdown page say how to reference communities?)
same reason a painting or drawing is named, i guess.
Or a piling or filing or filling or recording.
yup, good suggestions.
there's lots of them apparently.
build~~ing~~up
It's because it is the result of the action, like a drawing. We just don't say a built, or a drawn. I'm not sure why we used the gerand in English, but we do.
Buildinged.
I counter with Buffalo buffalo buffalo ruffalo buffalo as being a valid sentence.
That that exists exists in that that that that exists exists in.
True true true true, true true.
Put a bigger space between steve and and, and and and dave on that sign.
Its the same with a lot of words. Winding, painting, ending, etc

You don't building, no you build a building.
