使用する際の注意点

• Used to indicate that the transition from “will succumb” to “is succumbing” has already occurred, without implying whether the process has completed (as in succumbed) or is still ongoing (as in succumbing).
• Often appears in contexts where the subject’s present state is uncertain or where the finality associated with succumbed would be inappropriate.
• In contexts involving medical decline, the conceptual opposite of succambe would be the ingressive onset of recovery, but English lacks a dedicated verb form for this meaning.
