16

2220
01:03
Participials are words
that are made of verbs
17
63490
2848
01:06
and also finish in ED or ING.
18

case we use them
19

21
75219
2880
01:19

22
79150
1259
01:24
Adjectives with ED.
23
84459
1351
01:29
In one corner, we have the
adjectives that finish in ED.
24
89920

01:34
We usually use them
to describe feelings,
25
94870
3119
01:38
how people feel about
something or someone.
26
98319
3720
01:42
And it is not so common to
describe non-living things,
27
102340
4169
01:46
situations, or ideas with them.
28
106750
3030
01:51
For example.
29
111819
1140
01:53
I'm excited.

we have the adjectives

the quality of a person,
37
136629
3301
02:20
thing, or idea.
38
140229
1740
02:22
Therefore, they're in charge
of describing the thing that
39
142240

02:26
causes a feeling or emotion.

48
185840

and it depends on the kind

03:10
of situation or thing you
would like to describe.
50
