Hi, Anton Shepelev!
I read your message from 23.08.2024 15:20

ak>>   An English joke -- "Englishmen are the most coward
ak>>   people. If they ask something they always say 'I am
ak>>   afraid'". ;-)

as> `cowardly'.

You mean that there is no adjective "coward"?

Here for instance,
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/coward

PS: And in general, it is an English feature that almost every word can
perform every part of speech.

Bye, Anton!
