All words are made up.

It’s an accurate and useful word for describing something that previously did not have a word. Pretty simple stuff.

It did previously have words, but an adjective was shorthanded into a word and it's stupid.

No, it didn’t, that’s why compute is used now. Compute is a mass noun, shortened from Computation, also a mass noun and it’s a perfectly reasonable and accurate word. Also compute is not an adjective in any context, you’re thinking of a verb.

Ok so you apparently never took grammar so arguing with you is like playing chess with a pigeon. You're just kinda strutting around the board, knocking over the pieces and shitting all over the place thinking you're winning.

You’re projecting. In this conversation you have so far:

  • Tried to unitize a gerund without adding a measure word
  • Mistaken phrases for words
  • Confused adjectives and nouns
  • Ignored the validity of mass nouns as a whole

I don’t think you have even a conceptual understand of Grammar, and I suspect you only know English as a second language

Gerund fuck yourself, compute is a douchebag word used by douchebags. Lick my gerundle.
