The word “made” appears with remarkable versatility in literature, functioning as both a marker of creation and a signal of change or action. In some texts, “made” is used literally to denote the act of creating or constructing something—as when God “made food” [1] or when a magnificent kettle-drum “was made” for an opera-ballet [2]. In other instances, it conveys transformation or decision, exemplified by characters “making up their minds” [3, 4] or “making a promise” [5]. Additionally, “made” can indicate attribution or imposition of roles and qualities, as found in phrases like “made a scapegoat” [6] or being “made known” in a revelatory sense [7]. By employing this single word in varied and context-specific manners—from literal fabrication to metaphorical establishment—authors enrich their narrative with layers of meaning and nuance [8, 9, 10].
