Usage notes
In the preterite, kerer takes on special meaning:
 * When something or somebody fits into something, in a strict sense, usually an adverb such as iusdu or iusdamende is added.
 * This verb always implies an active sense; i.e., the subject always does the action of this verb, although some translations to English may have a passive form.
