Is Internetting a verb? I used it in a sentance, such as "Shh, I am interneting right now."

The girl I am with says it is not, but I dont believe her.

Isn't it an adjective?

I've used it a lot as a verb. So I say yes.

Thank you Terry, I agree. Its so much easier to say "Im interneting" rather that "Im using the internet"

It's a verb. I have to agree with the usage of it too.

Yes, it's a verb, and a noun, adjective, adverb, pronoun, conjunction and interjection. The Internet is all.

to me "I'm internetting" sounds weird and not quite right...maybe I'm just getting old I don't know.

In English you can turn practically any noun into a verb

It's a noun. Call it what you want, but "internetting" isn't technically correct. I prefer "surfing the interbutts," tbh.

I prefer "participating in a data-based orgy".

Not really, but I'm going to start using that.
