kuruu, kurueru? 2014/8/9 21:34
Hello everyone, Im listening to a song and I had to check up the lyrics.
I know the verb "狂う", but in the lyrics there is "狂える" and I have no idea what is this. Is this a verb form that goes from "-u" to "-eru"?
In addition I have "壊れる", ok I know what this is, but I also have "壊せる" which I cannot find.
Any help/useful links?
Thanks

狂える is the potential form of 狂う, 壊せる is the potential form of 壊す.

狂う = to go crazy, and 狂える is an old-fashioned way to say 狂った・狂っている (= has gone crazy = is crazy). Reading that it is in song lyrics, I would say they used it in the old-fashioned (somewhat poetic) way.

壊れる means (for something) to break, break down
壊せる comes from 壊す, meaning (for someone) to break (something), meaning (someone) can break something.
