Well, I don’t know, really. But assuming that the verb“jest” is used to relate to something facetious and amusing and in a trifling manner to boot, why not then?
On the other hand the“jest” might be taken somewhat “too” humorously formal as for a casual conversation, so to speak(correct me if I am wrong, ok )but again I guess we had better ask out lovely natives, Siunia, Terri, or others "girls and boys" that wear jumpers and turtle necks and take them off and put them on and so on and so forth.. Rhyme again, what ? :)) Who in the devil am I ?
Another prozacian poet ? hahahaha..
Here is an “archaic linguistic luscious muffin”, just for kicks : )
“I gest, I bourde or tryfyll with one, je bourde. I sayd it nat in good earnest, I dyd but…jeste with you. (1530 PALSGR. 562/1)
But I digressed as usual and “ Ik sary” . :)
Chyba mi trochę odbija czy nie ? Idę spać ..albo i nie :)
