Jactar Missing?

0

I was looking up "jactar" for the meaning in this dictionary, but it did not seem to come up on a search. However, I did find its list of conjugations. Is the word missing entirely from the dictionary or is this just some sort of error?

I used google translate, for lack of a better way of finding out, and found only the meaning "to boast." Is this the complete usage of the verb, or are there more meanings to it?

According to my Collins dictionary "jactarse" is "to boast" or "to brag".

eg: Jactarse de jugar fútbol. - To boast about playing football.

Jactar is not in our dictionary, but jactarse is.

Anytime you find an omission or an error in the dictionary, you may contact the site's Feedback to let them know, and they'll get it fixed, eventually.

I googled jactar and found this

It is the same thing amy said.

I tried doing a reverse lookup in the Flashcards and could not find it there either. I imagine someone will come along soon that will give us the answer. In the mean time I am going to add jactar to my list of verbs for flashcards so thanks for that.
