Is verge a verb?

In: Pronouns, Verbs [Edit categories]

Answer:

Not in the most common usage. It is actually a noun. Verge as a noun is defined as either: A.) an edge, or B.) A limiting point or border.
Verge as a verb however is defined as: "to be on the edge or margin; to border", or to come close to something; i.e. "I was on the verge of losing my cool."
