6 -to suicide e suicidarsi-
Nota d'usoIl verbo to suicide significa “suicidarsi” ma non è riflessivo, quindi l'affermazione He suicided himself non è corretta, ma si dovrà semplicemente dire: He suicided. Il verbo to suicide non è molto usato, mentre una locuzione più comune, e appropriata anche in contesti legali, è to commit suicide: She committed suicide, si suicidò. Esistono inoltre altri modi per esprimere lo stesso concetto, come ad esempio to kill oneself (che è riflessivo) o to take one's own life: I want to kill myself, voglio suicidarmi; He took his own life, si suicidò. -
