I think it depends on the context.  I'd prefer a grammatically awkward verb 
that described
the action more specifically, than a grammatically nicer generic term.  In 
other words,
yes/no, good/bad don't mean that much to me, unless it's obvious from context
what the effect will be.  With something like allow/deny, I have a pretty clear 
mental
model of what the code is going to do.
