**** Usage notes
- This is a catenative verb that takes the _gerund (-ing)_ . See Appendix:English catenative verbs .
- DENY can have a connotation that the denial is false; _he denied knowing the accused_ has a more suspicious tone than _he said he did not know the accused._ However, in some formal usages, e.g. medical records, it can have a more neutral sense ( _patient denies chest pain_ ).
- Although common, the use of this word with the preposition _of_ is frequently [proscribed] . Instead of _denied of_ , the expressions _deprive of_ or simply _deny_ are recommended. [1]
