permaculture

I think it isn't worth worrying about. You can't control it and language 
evolves as language evolves.

Subject: [permaculture] permaculture as noun, verb, adjective


Permaculture is generally used as a noun.  But in english, we are always 
turning 
nouns into verbs, and I was wondering how people felt about using 
permaculture 
as a verb.

e.g. "Permaculture that planet!"  (actually, that would be a command 
imperative.)

or "you too can permaculture your yard."

Adjective

The "Permacultured Kitchen"

Adverb

I would like to work permaculturally for several years.

I am curious as to other's thoughts on this.  Does this vocal evolution 
detract 
from understanding permaculture as a whole systems approach to design?
