However, there are a couple of ways to use it in a verb-like sense:
* "To basic" is a slang term meaning to simplify or reduce something to its most essential elements. It's a playful and informal way to talk about making something more straightforward.
* "To be basic" is another slang term meaning to conform to mainstream trends or preferences.
While these aren't formal verb forms, they reflect the way "basic" is used colloquially.
