Verb used just in te-form - krisaore - 2010-04-01
Hi, I was told by my teacher about some verbs used just in their te-form, do you have any clue about which one might she talking about?
Thanks in advance.

Why don't you ask her what she's talking about, because I certainly don't know.

Maybe you misunderstood her, I can't think of a single verb which is only used in -te form.

She said it has a normal 辞書形 but in practical use it's barely used just in its て形

Still have no idea what she's talking about; you'll have to ask her for the specific verb.

Well perhaps she meant 知って as this mostly appears as 知っている：Ｐ
No idea really.
There are a few other verbs that in some contexts only make linguistic sense if used in their ～て + いる form. I can't think of an example right now but it's something along the lines of 存じる ＆ 考える ＆ 思う.

連れる?

Odds are good it's 知る, but don't forget about 知らない!

All of those can be used perfectly well in their non-te form, though...
それを知る必要はない。
知ることより考えることが大切だ。
どう思う？
I doubt it was any of those.

thats why i said some contexts only. I can't think of them right now unfortunately

どう思う？
Yeah, it's definitely not 知る.

I got my answer..she was talking about "おいで" when you say "おいで おいで" to get someone come to you. Thanks for the answers
If you are curious this is the answer she gave me:実は、尊敬語のひとつです。
目上のひとが、目下の人に、使う丁寧な言い方。昔それは たぶんだけど
「いずる」という動詞からきたとおもう。いずるは、出るっていう意味。
尊敬語を作るとき、お+になる
尊敬語の作り方:
お+動詞+なる -> 例: "で" -> おい""でになる
That's all...I admit I would never have guessed it

おいで is just いでる（出でる） with an honorific. I've seen it in non-てform a few times in the past few weeks. Granted, the only time most people will see it is in polite speech where it's usually used in お〜になる.
Verb used just in te-form - yudantaiteki - 2010-04-02
OK yeah, that's a good example -- いづ isn't used very often in its plain form outside of classical Japanese or classical-influenced phrases.

Interesting, I never thought about おいで as a verb, but of course it is. That has to be the only example though.

Nobody responded to iSoron's comment 8 posts back, but I can't remember ever seeing 連れる used in anything but the -て form.

連れ子 step-child
連れに行く go and pick up
連れに来る come pick up
連れ去る take away
子供を連れた人 (person with a child)
and some others.
連れて is the most common usage though.
