Is it ok to use 'hevig' instead of 'verhevigen'?
Kan ik 'hevig' in plaats van 'verhevigen' gebruiken?

he·vig (bn.)
1 erg, in hoge mate => ernstig, gek, gemeen, geweldig, gruwelijk, hard, heftig, krachtig, ongegeneerd, onzacht, straf, venijnig

So much to choose from!
Wat een keuze!

I choose... Ik kies... ernstig

TOP!

Als compliment kun je in plaats van "klasse!" ook "top!" zeggen.

Oké, top heeft als verkleinwoord topje, een onderdeel van een bikini, en dat onderdeel wordt bij los gebruik ook wel genoemd:
BH = BorstHouder :o

En nu gaan we zeker vastlopen...

Ja, dit vraagt om een creatieve ingreep.

Een bh is een soort ondergoed. Dus:

Het ondergoed

Yes, this requires a creative intervention. ;-)
A bra is a type of underwear. Thus: underwear
