Swoon
Hi,
I know that you can ‘swoon over someone’, but I recently came across ‘swoon someone’.
Is it just an example of an incorrect use of the phrase or can it be acceptable under certain circumstances?
Thank you.

Ann225 ‘swoon someone’ That makes no sense to me. I checked a few dictionaries and found none where 'swoon' was listed as transitive, which it would have to be to occur in 'swoon someone'. It looks like you found some kind of mistake.
