Yes, I've definitely heard of that--I associate it with my grandfather.
But, then again, aren't you from central Texas, just like me?

“You’re wartin’ me to death”?  Never heard it.  And I’m 83.

Could it be from a specific region?  The example suggests some kind of
Southern US (Y’all), but the reaches of y’all extend far!

All good wishes.

Beste Lowlandvrienden:
Beste Mark,

English WART   =   Dutch WRAT   =  Frisian WART

In my Ostend dialect (West-Flemish, West-Vlaams) = WORTE

English GLAZIER of DRAGON-FLY  = Dutch  GLAZENMAKER  =  Frisian  WARTEBITER

"Wart" or "wrat" or "worte" not used as e verb!

Toet noaste ki!

Roland Desnerck
