English Language & Usage Asked by Sanjay Pandey on August 18, 2021
What is the proper way to say I’m applying talcum powder on my child’s body? I always wonder whether ‘applying powder’ is correct in this sense.
I'd say put powder on. It is true that powder is a transitive verb, but it sounds odd to me except in specific phrases, like powder my nose.
