Do people outside of California use/understand "grub" as a verb meaning "to eat"? http://onlineslangdictionary.com/definition+of/grub http://onlineslangdictionary.com/definition+of/grub
- jlees 16y agoAs a Brit I understand it in terms of the noun, not verb. "Food with us" is just as understandable as "Eat with us", though.
- bconway 16y agoOn the East Coast, I've only heard it used as a noun, and that was maybe 20 years ago. It's been a bootloader for the past 10-ish.
- ahoyhere 16y agoI'm an east coaster with lots of west coast friends, from whom I've picked up a lot of west coast slang and mannerisms (e.g. "the 95", "fuckin A"). But I've never heard grub as a verb.
