      No, it didn’t, that’s why compute is used now. Compute is a mass noun, shortened from Computation, also a mass noun and it’s a perfectly reasonable and accurate word. Also compute is not an adjective in any context, you’re thinking of a verb.

        Ok so you apparently never took grammar so arguing with you is like playing chess with a pigeon. You’re just kinda strutting around the board, knocking over the pieces and shitting all over the place thinking you’re winning.

          You’re projecting. In this conversation you have so far:

          • Tried to unitize a gerund without adding a measure word
          • Mistaken phrases for words
          • Confused adjectives and nouns
          • Ignored the validity of mass nouns as a whole

          I don’t think you have even a conceptual understand of Grammar, and I suspect you only know English as a second language
