Re: bath/bathe And what do you think about: I usually bath my baby in the evening? Originally Posted by Dr. Jamshid Ibrahim

Re: bath/bathe True you can say bath a baby but I think bathe has a higher frequency or at least I avoid using it as verb. As Teia said bath is used with verbs like:have, take, give, run..

I bathed the baby.

Re: bath/bathe This is what I know that bath is a noun and bathe is a verb until I saw these examples: Originally Posted by teia_petrescu

* We also do cleaning with ourselves like we bath everyday and wear new clothes
