Usage notes edit
- There is a transitive derivation bebomben, but this is very rare. The normal transitive equivalent is bombardieren, which however tends to imply shelling or dropping of bombs. For a sentence such as “Terrorists have bombed a supermarket” one could say Terroristen haben in einem Supermarkt eine Bombe gezündet.
