Grandmas are the only people in the world who are experts at stuffing people.

Daniel hadn’t visited his grandmother in a while. That same morning he had received a message from his mother that said: “Grandma has made croquettes.” No doubt that was the signal that made him take the car and go to his grandmother’s house to stuff himself (or was he? gorge?).

gorging received the 96 % of the votes, while the 4 % remaining of those consulted opted for gorge

On this occasion, from the FundéuRAE team, we wanted to know which form was the most used by our followers: gorge o gorge. If any of them have been curious as to which was the correct option and have searched the Dictionary of the Spanish language before answering our survey Instagram, you will have noticed that only the first option, the one written with be, is included in this work. So where does the other spelling come from? Is in the Panhispanic dictionary of doubts where we find an explanation atiforrar (se), with eph. It is explained that this shape may be due to a cross between gorge (itself) y lining(if)but that is not adequate, so it is advisable to gorge (itself)con be.

When this verb means ‘to eat food’, registered as a colloquial use, it can be constructed as transitive (stuff someone with something) or as a pronominal (gorge on something).

Once again, we want to thank our fans, who are always willing to give us feedback in these surveys. We remember that they do not have any scientific purpose, but they do help us to know a little better what terms the speakers who accompany us on social networks use.
