the use of verb freight #1 (permalink) Sat Dec 12, 2009 11:09 am   the use of verb freight
 

please. would you tell me the use of verb freight with some example sentences.
I already know the use of noun freight.
When freight is used as a verb, can we say: a shipping company freights some goods to some places
or a shipping company freights to some places? That is, whether it is used as intransitive verb or transitive verb?
Thank you very much!

Hi Millie,

It would usually be transitive (with an object). It would be similar to noun and verb 'transport'.
