メガフェプス

noun

megafeps (mnemonic for verbs that take gerunds, not infinitives)

A mnemonic acronym used in English grammar instruction within Japanese contexts. It stands for the verbs mind, enjoy, give up, avoid, finish, escape, postpone, and stop, which are followed by gerunds rather than infinitives. This term is domain-specific to English language learning.
