what is a past particle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The past participle, also sometimes called the passive or perfect participle, is identical to the past tense form (ending in -ed) in the case of regular verbs, but takes various forms in the case of irregular verbs, such as sung, written, put, gone, etc.

no problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Participles are words formed from verbs which can be used as adjectives. There are two types of participles: ** The Past Participle (usually ending -ed, -d, -t, -en, or -n) ** The Present Participle (ending -ing) I.e. Verb: To swell Past Participle: swollen eyes. I.e. Verb: To break Past Participle: Broken Plate etc. Past Participles in Participle Phrases: The boy taken to hospital has recovered. (The participle phrase taken to hospital describes the boy.) Past Participles Used as Adjectives: Here is a laminated copy to replace your torn one. Hope this helps!
