Скачать или смотреть WHAT ARE ED AND ING ADJECTIVES | WHEN TO USE THEM? | PARTICIPLE ADJECTIVES

Most present and past participle forms of verbs that describe emotion or feelings can be used as adjectives, but the meanings of the participles are not the same.

For example:

A fresh ocean breeze on a hot summer day is refreshing, so I feel refreshed.

The present participle (-ing form of the verb) refers to something or somebody that causes the feeling:

The breeze is refreshing. (The breeze causes this feeling.)

The past participle (-ed form of the verb) is used to express how a person is affected by something.

I feel refreshed. (I am experiencing this feeling as a result of the breeze.)

These are used in a slightly different way from normal adjectives: We usually use the past participle (ending in -ed) to talk about how someone feels; whereas, we usually use the present participle (ending in -ing) to talk about the person, thing, or situation which has caused the feeling. In this video, you will practice using some of the most common verbs expressing feelings and emotions. Good luck!
