    If you're going to use ante as the verb, "upped" is the past participal of the verb, which is totally kosher.

    Sure, "upped" works in some places but the point is you've messed up the idiom here. "Anted up" is idiomatic, "ante upped" is not:

    [FONT= ][FONT=Arial]This sentence pattern consists of a Subject Noun and an Intransitive Verb. We have explained Subject Nouns in other lessons, but have only touched on Intransitive Verbs. The name itself means it cannot carry action across the sentence from the Subject to an Object. That means that the action stops with the verb. [SIZE=2]Examples: I sleep. We think. My mother wonders. My father relaxes. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]The subject performs the action and generally is the only one affected by it. [/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]
    [FONT= ][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]BUT, most sentences with Intransitive Verbs contain other words in addition to the subject and the verb. These extra words will either describe the subject more fully or tell when, where, why or how the action took place. Look at the following example.[/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]John sings. (This is complete and correct as it stands, but it does not tell us very much.)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]John sings every Sunday. (Now we know when John sings.)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]John sings every Sunday in church. (Now we know when and where John sings.)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]John sings with the choir every Sunday in church. (This gives us an idea of why he sings.)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    [FONT= ][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]These additional words certainly tell us more about John's singing, but they do not change the fact that the original, basic sentence is [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]John sings. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]Here are some more examples.[/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]We swim. Fish jump. Most children laugh. Too many trucks crash. Authors write. Pythons swallow. [/SIZE][/FONT]
    [FONT= ][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]These examples include some verbs that can be both Intransitive and Transitive, depending on how they are used and what other elements are in the sentence. Notice the differences.[/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]We swim in the pool. (intransitive - no object to receive the action) We swim ten laps in the pool. (transitive - 'laps' tells us what we swim)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Authors write. (intransitive) Authors write novels. (transitive)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    • [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Pythons swallow. (intransitive) Pythons swallow their prey. (transitive)[/SIZE][/FONT]
    [FONT= ][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]With each of the Intransitive sentences, if we ask , "We swim what? Authors write what? Pythons swallow what?", there is no answer within the sentence[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]With the other sentences, if we ask, "We swim what?" the answer is right there - laps. "Authors write what? novels. Pythons swallow what? their prey." That is the way you determine if a verb is transitive or intransitive. A sentence with a transitive verb will provide an answer to the what/whom question, while a sentence with an intransitive verb can only answer "where?" or "when?" or "Why?" or "How?".[/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT]

    Since you refuse to respond to the point that intransitive verbs do nothing to change the butchery of our language that is "ante upped" I'll just assume you've given up on that account and are trying to save face by changing the subject at this point.

    If you'll notice in all the definitions and how-to's, it says words like "mostly" and "often" and "commonly", meaning there is no set rule in any form of speech or language. And that's because whatever conveys the thought or message the clearest, given the context, is the correct form to use, regardless of the "rules". You should already know this, bud, being as smart as you are.

    The clearest message you are sending here you sniveling chicken necked fucktard is that you are hopelessly and steadfastly ignorant. It takes real skill to hold on to stupidity so tightly. You sound suspiciously like someone being ass raped by a moose while trying to communicate.
