feel[edit]

The translations sections here is considerably less developed than many other of our entries of this importance. Maybe we could have a translation collaboation here, and get [[feel]] up to the standard of [[hinder]]. --Jackofclubs 17:51, 8 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

To feel badly[edit]

The entry claims that "I feel badly. means I have trouble experiencing emotions. or I am not able to use the sense of touch well." I would like to see evidence of anyone having used the phrase this way, other than prescriptive grammarians. It has often been used in precisely the way that this entry proscribes, e.g. Ernest Hemingway in A Farewell to Arms: "You mustn't worry or feel badly." 81.197.87.242 11:08, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
