These questions on my linguistics exam are so fucking stupid, such as:
A linguist noticed that "-en" appeared at the end of some verbs in English: e.g. John was beaten by Mary, Frank was forgiven by Bill, the cat was stolen by Sally.
The linguist hypothesized that -en is a productive suffix. Describe an experiment she could do to prove or disprove her hypothesis.
the first statement made sense to me, the second one did not LOL
