Theory Participle is a word that can be used as an adjective and a verb. There are two types of participles: the present and past participle. Participle is a non-finite form of the verb which in regular verbs ends either -ing or -ed ( -en for irregular verbs). Two participles are distinguished traditionally labelled present participle (e.g. being, doing, looking, also called gerund participle or -ing participle) and past participle (e.g. been, done, drunk, looked ). neither name is accurate, since both participles are used in the formation of a variety of complex constructions (tenses) and can be used in combination with one or more auxiliaries to refer to past/present/future time. Preferred term are -ing form which also includes the gerund and -ed / -d / -t / -en / -n form. The past participle is used for passive voice adjectives and the present participles is used for active voice adjectives. For example, from word go - went – gone , see - saw – seen , and have – ha
