Past Participle
El pasado participio en inglés es una de las formas verbales utilizadas para formar los tiempos perfectos, como el presente perfecto ("have/has + pasado participio") o el pasado perfecto ("had + pasado participio"), así como la voz pasiva ("be + pasado participio").
El pasado participio generalmente se forma agregando "-ed" al final del verbo para los verbos regulares. Por ejemplo:
-
Walk (caminar) → Walked (caminado)
-
Play (jugar) → Played (jugado)
Para los verbos irregulares, la forma del pasado participio puede variar y no sigue una regla específica. Algunos ejemplos de verbos irregulares y sus pasados participios son:
-
Go (ir) → Gone (ido)
-
Eat (comer) → Eaten (comido)
-
See (ver) → Seen (visto)
Es importante tener en cuenta que el pasado participio también puede ser usado como un adjetivo en algunas construcciones, por ejemplo:
-
The broken window (la ventana rota)
-
The lost key (la llave perdida)
