One of humankind’s unique talents — turning nouns into verbs. Maybe this should be called “verbing”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verbing#Verbing
Not of all humankind, not in all languages are so (or less) direct and easy to do it. As far as I know, for some agglutinative languages its far more easier, and thus the difference between noun and verb is not so clear.
in Neolatin (fusional) languages is mostly performed using [some] suffixes and/or prefixes, as verbs must have regular endings. It could be called “derivación verbal”.
* “nome”, meaning ‘noun’ > “nomear”, meaning ‘to put a name to’).
* “claro”, meaning ‘clear’ or ‘light [colour]’ > “aclarar”, meaning ‘show something clearer’ or ‘lighten’
I personally have a crush in this last kind of English deadjectival derivation: deepen, fatten, harden, lengthen, ?slighthen, shorthen, soften, strengthen, widen. Do you know more please?

In addition to “live-tweet” you should include “live-blog,” both referring to ways in which viewers of a current event (often on television) can exchange comments as the event unfolds. The producers of “reality” shows and award programs often organize a formal process for exchanging comments. It is also common for news broadcasters to invite viewers/listeners to offer real-time comments on political debates, speeches, and other public events.
Thanks a lot for this service
