Practice

  1. 1
    verb
    Present participle and gerund of remark.

    The critics spent the evening remarking on the film's unusual pacing.

    Remarking on her colleague's promotion, she raised a glass.

    Note

    The commenting sense is the everyday one, and it usually takes on: remarking on the pacing, remarking on a promotion. Without on, it can mean noticing or stating (remarking a change, remarking that it was late); pointing something out or marking it as notable are obsolete uses. A teacher remarking essays is marking them again. That is a separate verb, also spelled re-marking, and the hyphen makes that reading unmistakable.
