The word "Mutate" is not a noun, it's a verb.
Plus, since you're saying that Spider-Man is not a mutant because he was not born one, does that mean that Spider-Girl, his daughter, is a mutant?

Morbius does not possess any of the mystical vulnerabilities that supernatural vampires are subject to, such as garlic, holy water, or silver. He has a strong aversion to sunlight, thanks to his photo-sensitive skin which prevents any protection from major sun burn, in contrast to "true" vampires that are incinerated by it.
Morbius lacks the shapeshifting and weather control powers of vampires in the Marvel U, and the ability to control animals. Like "true" vampires, Morbius does possess the ability to hypnotize beings of lesser willpower and bring them under his control, which can only be resisted by those possessing an extremely strong will. He also has the ability to "morph" his body to fit through small spaces, like a mouse.
Morbius' victims do not necessarily become vampires themselves.
Morbius possesses the ability of transvection, navigating wind currents and gliding for various distances.Most Vampires in the Marvel U can outright fly.

Adjitives are words that describe Nouns. Verbs are actions. And a noun of course is a person, place, or thing.
You're taking a verb and useing it as either a noun or an adjitive.
So Spider-man is in fact a Mutant. Mutated is what happen to him, not what he is.

If he were a Mutant Prof X would have contacted him and asked him to join the X-Men, Magneto would have done the same.
It's been stated in fiction numerous times the Spider-Man is not a Mutant in Ultimate Spider-Man Wolverine even gets angry as Spider-Man states he's a Mutant.
In House of M he pretends to be a Mutant.
To be a mutant in the Marvel Universe you need the X gene in your DNA Spider-Man doesn't have that. Also the end of House of M would have cost him his powers.
Sabrblade wrote:Ok, so from I what i'm getting for Sto is that, in oreder to be a "mutant", you have to be born with the mutation.
Well, I know this isn't Marvel, but what about the TMNT? The M in their name is short for "Mutant" and not "Mutated" or anything. So, it's been outright stated that they are mutants, but hey weren't born as mutants. Their mutation occured post-birth.
I know there's been several different versions of their origins, but they all involve their mutation occurring after they were born, when they were a little younger than toddlers.
So, there must be more than one type of mutant. Perhaps the X-men are, as Saber Prime said Wolverine put it, "real mutants", and those who mutated after their birth are like "unauthentic mutants" or something.

I believe I worded that a bit wrong.The point I was trying to make was that a verb does not always require an action but can describe or be used to report on a subjects state of being or condition.
So again in calling a character in the Marvel U, who's DNA was re-written by outside means a "mutate", I am reporting on the subjects [character] state of being and or condition.
Coming up with examples makes my head hurt.
Here's the basics on how "verbs" are used....again
VERB:
In syntax, a verb is a word (part of speech) that usually denotes an action (bring, read), an occurrence (decompose, glitter), or a state of being (exist, stand). Depending on the language, a verb may vary in form according to many factors, possibly including its tense, aspect, mood and voice. It may also agree with the person, gender, and/or number of some of its arguments (subject, object, etc.). action verbs involve people doing things.
Valency (linguistics)
The number of arguments that a verb takes is called its valency or valence. Verbs can be classified according to their valency.
Intransitive (valency = 1): the verb only has a subject. For example: "he runs", "it falls".
Transitive (valency = 2): the verb has a subject and a direct object. For example: "she eats fish", "we hunt deer".
Linking (valency = 3): State of being; does not require an action. The subject complements are related to subject rather than the verb. It simply reports a condition or asks a questions about a condition.

If you can use a verb to describe a persons gender you can use the verb "Mutate" to describe what a character is.
["Saber Prime"]Not everyone who gets bit by a real vampire will become one. Vampires can either turn humans or outright kill them at will.

In the marvel U "familiars" were a bit different but they were there in some cases.
And not just with vampires....there were Witches and vodo preast that had them as well.
Some were shap shifters, mostly cats, while others were pretty normal.
I dont remember if the Vampire familiars were branded in the comice nor do I remember if there were such large numbers of them.
I only remember a few differet vampires even having any.
So in this case calling Spiderman a "Mutate" is as a report on his condition....as state of his being.
The verb does not require an action.
We've been threw this kind of argument before and you never win.And I dont mean to disrespect you.I went to school to try to learn to become a writter and artist for comics so I know the use of these terms a bit better.

Vampires would be made from a single bite. The problem here is I never said ANYTHING about how many times a vampire would have to bite someone to turn them so I don't get why you even said that.
Without any need to "turn" them. Adds to the confusion by contridicting the first part of the statement that made no sence to begine with. To "turn" a human and make a vampire are the same thing so you basically said "vampires can make other vampires without makeing other vampires."
So yeah, could you rephraise this whole section here because I really have no clue what the heck you're trying to say and have no idea how to respond other than to exsplain why it makes absolutly no sence.

Vampire familiars serve as workers, someone who can easily walk around in daylight and do the jobs the vampires themselfs can't. Witch familiars depending on the fiction can be either talking or non talking animals that are either teachers, protectors, or the true source of their magic.

How are you getting that it's a describing word? That would be an adjative. I use to get nouns and adjatives mixed up in school, alot of people get thoughs two mixed up but this is the first I seen anyone confuse a verb for an adjative.

And what I'm trying to say is that at the time of his creation Vampiresim in the Marvel Universe was more like a sickness.When exposed you contracted the illness.
So unlike other Vampire myths, where there is a set of circumstances in the turning of a human, or the killing threw feeding instead of changing, every one bitten and feed on would turn into a Vampire.
But like I said that has been changed in modern times.

Notice how he said that. It's stated as something that's happening to Spider-man not to describe what Spider-man is.
"So that's it, I'm mutating. Into what I don't know. Can you cure me?" Spider-man
"I'm Sorry Spider-man, my work is not to cure mutants. I built this complex, this school to train them." Professor X
I'm keeping score and that's 1 point for calling Spider-man a mutant 0 points for calling him a mutate. Yes Professor X himself just called Spider-man a mutant. If he wasn't calling Spider-man a mutant why even go into that exsplination of why he can't cure him? He would of simply said "I'm sorry Spider-man but you're not a mutant."
"Watch your mouth pal, being a mutant's a gift." Wolverine.
This one wasn't really directed at Spider-man it was in reply to calling them freaks so I won't actully count this one on the score.
"Don't worry about my pain, worry about yours if I mutate into a dangerous creature and you have to stop me." Spider-man
Again, he used the word mutate to describe what's happening to him not to describe what he is.
Mutant 1 Mutate 0
"Spider-man don't go! He could be a big help to us." Jubulie (spelling?)
Allthough she didn't actully call him a mutant it's obvious she thought he could join the X-Men so she must of been thinking it. However haveing not said it, I'm only counting how many times they actully call Spider-man a mutant vs a mutate.
Mutant 1 mutate 0
"Look, he aint even a real mutant, he said it himself, it was an accident." Wolverine
"Then perhaps he has the right to seek a cure. There's a man at the brand coperation who has been researching mutant genetics, maybe he can help." Beast
Now this time Wolverine does blantantly call Spider-man a mutant. He says he is not a real mutant but he is still a mutant caused by an accident.
Beast allso talks about recruting a researcher in "MUTANT" genetics to help cure Spider-man.
Mutant 3 Muatate 0
"Has been studieing your particular brand of mutation." Beast
This right here alone states there are two different types of Mutatants. The ones who are born like Beast, and the ones who are created like Spider-man.
"I knew if we watched Xavier's place long enough we'd find a mutant."
"But is Spider-man a mutatnt?"
"Who cares, there's Henry McCoy. Now we're talking mutants."
I cut parts out here but the basic jist of what's going is they're mostly talking about McCoy being a mutant. They know he is but one guy questions weather or not Spider-man is.
"I may be a mutant but I'm still Human." Beast
"Well that's were we're different, I'm not sure I still am." Spider-man
Spider-man just called himself a mutant but I won't count it sence this could have mutliple meanings.
Mutant 3 Mutate 0
"Why would you want to be with a mutated thing like me?" Spider-man
Again, mutated was used to describe what's happing to him not to describe what he is. Thing was used to describe what he is.
Mutant 3 Mutate 0
Another woman in the episode who's name I know I can't spell called them Muties rather than Mutants and Peter Parker got offended by it. Rather strange considering how he called them freaks earlier himself.
Now I'm not going to quote landon word for word but you seem to have missed the point of the episode. Landon is talking about CREATING MUTANTS something you said can not be done because they have to be born that way.
So at the end of the first episode the score is still Mutant 3 Mutate 0.
They did call Spider-man a mutant 3 times and NEVER called him a mutate.

Spider-man is states a description for Spider-man, an Adjective.

No I'm useing the word as a "non-action" verb.
Here are a few examples....
We have a brand new motercycle.........(Non-action verb)
We are having a difference of opinion now....(Action verb)
Spider-man was mutated......(Action verb)
Spiderman and other characters who's DNA are re-writter by outside means are considered "mutates"..........(Non-action verb)
The "Non-action verb" in this case indicate state of being or exsistance,it indicate the condition of the character as a result of an action, it is a word which affirms or predicates something of some person.
If you want to continue to ignore your all of this fine but I've proven my point.
Calling Spidy a "mutate" is correct.
In doing so I am:
1] I am useing the word "Mutate" as a part of speech that expresses his existence
2] making a point of his state of existence
3]I am pointing out his state of being.
4]I am useing the word "Mutate" a part of speech expressing his being
And I'm useing the word "Mutate" as A word which affirms or predicates something of the person in question.
I'm useing the word as a non-action verb.

Not a real mutant means not a mutant.

This right here alone states there are two different types of Mutatants.The ones who are born like Beast, and the ones who are created like Spider-man.
No it state that there are different types and reasons for "Mutation".
As already stated Mutants are born that way.
And by the way the Beast is the result of both types of Mutation.
He was not born Blue and furry.
He was born with beast like hands and feet and the agility of an ape but he looked human.
In an attempt to alter his body he took some chemicals that resulted in changing his natural mutation.Saber Prime wrote: "I knew if we watched Xavier's place long enough we'd find a mutant."
"But is Spider-man a mutatnt?"
"Who cares, there's Henry McCoy. Now we're talking mutants."
I cut parts out here but the basic jist of what's going is they're mostly talking about McCoy being a mutant. They know he is but one guy questions weather or not Spider-man is.
"I may be a mutant but I'm still Human." Beast
"Well that's were we're different, I'm not sure I still am." Spider-man
Spider-man just called himself a mutant but I won't count it sence this could have mutliple meanings.
No spiderman said he doesnt know if he's still human....he doesnt know what he's becoming and he greatest fear is that he'll become a 8 legged monster...which he later did.Saber Prime wrote:

Maybe he was starting to identify with others that are different.People change and grow and it doesnt always take a lot of time to learn those lessons.Saber Prime wrote:Now I'm not going to quote landon word for word but you seem to have missed the point of the episode. Landon is talking about CREATING MUTANTS something you said can not be done because they have to be born that way.
Again plot devise.
By the way this plot is somewhat loosely based on a few plots from the x-men comics.
1] Early in his supervillain career, the mutant Magneto created a headquarters in the Savage Land, a tropical jungle existing within Antarctica. Finding mutations occurred easily in this land due to high levels of radiation, Magneto assembled various natives from tribes all over the Savage Land and, calling himself "the Creator," subjected them to experiments that greatly enhanced their physiology, creating the Savage Land Mutates.
2] Genosha is a small island located south east of Madagascar on the eastern coast of Africa.Genosha was a thriving country, one of the richest in the world. However, the nation's wealth was due to using mutants as slaves. The government tested their citizens for the mutant gene, and any mutants found were stripped of basic rights and forced into slavery.
Citizens found to carry the ressive Mutant gene were forced threw experiments designed to activate the dorment genes and these characters were called "Mutates".
Both plots revolved around the idea of creating characters that differed from the normal humans.
The Spiderman animated serries,which was targeted at children, chose not to further complicate the classifications of the differences of what these characters would bne really called.Saber Prime wrote:
So at the end of the first episode the score is still Mutant 3 Mutate 0.
They did call Spider-man a mutant 3 times and NEVER called him a mutate.
They never call him a mutant but do refer to him mutating at least 5 times.
Saber Prime wrote:Now to review the second episode, lets see how the score turns up. Setting the scores back to 0 and keeping a new count.
"Mutants, activate the missle launchers and turn off thoughs alarms." Landon
Yes he just called both Wolverine and Spider-man mutants and only 2 min into the episode.
Mutant 1 Mutate 0
"Blast that mutant scum into oblivion." Landon
Right after he said that the weapons locked onto Spider-man. Spider-man was called a mutant TWICE in the same scene 2 min. into the episode.
Mutant 2 Mutate 0
Boy are you stretching.
Landen did not examine Spidy or his blood,he has no knowledge about his past or how he came to be.
But he finds Spidy in the company of known mutants helping mutants and having "mutant like powers"....of course a man like Landen is gonig to jump to the conclusion that Spidy may be a mutant.
Its like JJ jumping to the conclusion that Spidy is as much of a memese as the bad guys he fights.
For a writter you have a poor imagination.
Score's still 0 to 0Saber Prime wrote:
"How ironic, he is becomming what he hated most, a mutant" Beast
This was in refrence to Landon so I'm not counting it but this is another example of YES YOU CAN BE A MUTANT WITHOUT BEING BORN THAT WAY.
This is the only one I would count in your argument.
Its the only real time that its definitely stated......thou it was still a simplifying of the issue as a plot devise for a kids targeted show.
You wouldnt believe the up-rore that one statement made durring the comic book conventions of the 90's at the Spiderman tables.
Fan boys were up in arms over that one line.

Being a "mutated" person in the marvel u does not make you a mutant.
The Marvel definitions of both these conditions are quite clear...mutants are born with a gentic quirk
Thoses that are "mutated" are changed by some maner and are not called mutants because they dont have that genetic quirk.
Saber Prime wrote:Allso Magneto would not of ever contacted Spider-man because he was not born a mutant. Magneto hates humans and as far as he's conserned anyone born human is the enemy.
Thats a bit of an over statement.
For a guy that you claim "Hates" humans he has had relationships with humans.Both in friendships as well as romantic.
I said you misunderstood the reason he was called a mutant.And that reason was to be a plot devise.
And its funny I watch both episodes and not once is he called a "mutant" by any one character that would be in the know.
He's said to be "mutating" but thats not saying he's a mutant.
Pro-X does not call him a mutant nor does Beast.
About the only character of consequence that uses "Spiderman" and "mutant" together is Wolverine and he's no man of intellectual.
As I have already pointed out a being that is the result of a mutation is not considered a mutant in any Marvel universe.
The only time a "mutated" character was called a mutant in ether episode was when Beast called the "mutated" Landen a mutant and that could have just been a way of being ironic.
Saber Prime wrote:Spider-man was states something that happen to him, a verb.
Spider-man is states a description for Spider-man, an Adjective.

The "Non-action verb" in this case indicate state of being or exsistance,it indicate the condition of the character as a result of an action, it is a word which affirms or predicates something of some person.
If you want to continue to ignore your all of this fine but I've proven my point.
Calling Spidy a "mutate" is correct.

Again, he used the word mutate to describe what's happening to him not to describe what he is.

Mutant still 0 and by my score every time the word "mutate" or mutation are used to describe whats happening to Spidy its a score....and so far the score is "Mutating" 4
Saber Prime wrote:"Spider-man don't go! He could be a big help to us." Jubulie (spelling?)
Allthough she didn't actully call him a mutant it's obvious she thought he could join the X-Men so she must of been thinking it. However haveing not said it, I'm only counting how many times they actully call Spider-man a mutant vs a mutate.

That page gives several examples of right and wrong was to use them. Every wrong example included the word "is" where have I heard that before, oh I know your sentence. "Spider-man IS a mutate." You were in fact useing improper grammer and the dictionary confirms that yet again.

Spider-man was mutated......(Action verb)
Spiderman and other characters who's DNA are re-writter by outside means are considered "mutates"..........(Adjective)
As I said before, any word used to describe a noun is an adjective. Mutates in that sentence describes several nouns.
Have or haveing do not describe a noun.
In the first sentence you listed Have was used to state one nouns relation to another, that we have a motorcycle. Have doesn't describe who "we" are nor does it describe the motorcycle.
In the second sentence haveing states that we are doing something in this case, a difference of opinion.
In the third statement, Mutate is used to describe what genetically altered people are. Because it describes what a group of people are that makes it an adjective. An adjective is a word that descibes a noun. You are describeing a noun.
Saber Prime wrote:I'm not ignoreing anything nor have you proven anything other than you don't know what an adjective is.
Saber Prime wrote:No it isn't.
Saber Prime wrote:
If you said. "Spider-man is mutateing." "Spider-man mutated." "Spider-man has a mutation." or "The spider bite caused Peter Parker to mutate." any of thoughs would be correct.
To say "Spider-man is a mutate." is wrong because in that sentence mutate is being used as an adjective.

Anyway, to clear this bit up. Spider-man asked for a cure and Professor X answer for why he can't cure Spider-man is because he does not cure "mutants". What you fail to realize is that if Spider-man is not a mutant how is that a suffeciant exsplination for why he can't be cured? If Spider-man is not a mutant than "because I don't cure mutants" has absolutly nothing to do with Spider-man asking for a cure for his condition so why would he give that as an exsplination?

Please pay attention to the full sentence of how they use the words vs. how you were useing it. You useing it to describe what Spider-man IS they use it to describe what Spider-man is GOING THOUGH.
It's not about the word by itself, it's how you're useing it wrong.

Seriously, at this point I don't care anymore. It's abvious no matter what the facts say you're going to let your own opinions take over and I want no part of that. This will be my last post unless you stop stateing your opinions as facts here.

I really only needed 1 example to prove this true and you just agreed with me on this point or you just couldn't find any way to work around it, either way I was right.
