Answer:

winters there might be really cold sometimes.

Explanation:

A participle is a type of word derived from a verb that is used for a variety of purposes, such as an adjective or to construct verb tenses.

Past participles are used as adjectives and to construct the perfect verb tenses. We’ll talk more about that soon, but to understand a past participle, it’s important to understand how they are formed from the root form of the verb. The root form is the form you will find if you look up a verb in our amazing dictionary. For example, jump is a root form of a verb.

Depending on the verb, there are several different ways we form the past participle:

For most verbs, the past participle is formed by adding -ed or -d to the end of the root form of the verb. For example, the past participle of jump is jumped and the past participle of excite is excited. Some verbs also use a -t variant, in which case they may change spelling slightly. For example, the past participle of burn is burnt and the past participle of sleep is slept.

If a verb ends in a consonant followed by a -y, we drop the -y and add -ied. For example, the past participle of fry is fried.

If a one-syllable verb ends in consonant-vowel-consonant, we double the last consonant. For example, the past participle of pet is petted and the past participle of slit is slitted.

If a one syllable verb ends in -w, -x, or -y, we don’t double the last consonant. For example, the past participle of flex is flexed, the past participle of skew is skewed, and the past participle of play is played.

For longer verbs, we only double the last constant if the verb ends in consonant-vowel-consonant and the last syllable is stressed. For example, the past participle of omit is omitted but the past participle of deposit is deposited.

Verbs that follow these rules are called regular verbs. The past participle of regular verbs is almost always identical to the simple past tense form of the verb. For example, both the past participle and simple past tense form of the regular verb approach is approached.

While regular verbs are relatively simple, there are many irregular verbs that don’t follow any of the above rules. For example, the past participle of the verb eat is eaten. With irregular verbs, the past participle may not be the same as the simple past tense. For example, the past participle of the irregular verb do is done but the simple past tense of do is did. Unfortunately, there are no general guidelines to use to know what the past participle of an irregular verb is. You will simply need to remember them as you learn them.

Past participles as adjectives

It is also possible to use past participles on their own as adjectives. In this case, past participles are usually placed immediately before the word/phrase that they modify, just as is done with other adjectives. Here are some examples of past participles used as adjectives:

  • The carpenters fixed the damaged wall.
  • The students turned in their completed essays.
  • The enraged crowd shouted angrily at the politician.

Just like other adjectives, past participles can also be a complement that is connected to the subject by a linking verb.

Henry was tired.

The audience was amazed by the magician’s incredible tricks.

Past participles as verbs

Past participles can (sort of) be used as verbs when we use sentences in the passive voice. A passive voice sentence has the subject of the sentence act as a receiver of an action rather than a performer. For example, the sentence Dinner was made by me is a sentence that uses the passive voice.
