Oh, very yes. It's a common part of my wordplay (for want of a better term
for that subset of compulsive tics that involve weirding language) to form
irregular versions of perfectly regular verbs and nouns. I have also been
known to fixate on archaic formations, the most popular being |eyren| as
the plural of |egg|, along with |childer| as the plural of |child| and
several others. The use of |y-| to form perfects is not unknown.
