    Participle
     A participle is a verb form that can be used to create verb tense.
     There are two types of participles:
     Present participle (ending -ing)
     Past participle (usually ending -ed, -d, -t, -en, or -n).
     Here are the verb tenses that are formed using present participles:
    1. Present continuous tense
    Examples: a. Caroline is looking for the latest newspaper.
    b. I am writing a newspaper report.
    2. Present perfect tense
    Examples: a. I have taken the wrong class.
    b. A music teacher has started the lesson.
     Here are the verb tenses that are formed using past participles:
    1. Past continuous tense
    Examples: a. Stella was baking a cake.
    b. They were painting the fence.
    2. Past perfect tense
    Examples: a. The students had practiced the music before the teacher arrived.
    b. He had always seen himself as a star.

     The present and past participle of some verbs take on a regular form.
    VERB PRESENT PARTICIPLE (verb+ing) PAST PARTICIPLE (verb+ed/d)
    jump jumping jumped
    walk walking walked
    dive diving dived
    move moving moved
    cry cried cried
    stop stopped stopped
    enjoy enjoyed enjoyed
    fix fixed fixed
    identify identified identified
    organize organized organized

     The past participle of some verbs takes on an irregular form.
    VERB PAST TENSE PAST PARTICIPLE
    run ran run
    throw threw thrown
    swim swam swum
    break broke broken
    buy bought bought
    choose chose chosen

     Besides acting as verbs, participles may also act as adjectives.


    Examples: a. The boy tried to fix a broken window.
    b. The bored man went to sleep during the discussion.
    c. We should arrange the decimals in decreasing order.

    Each Other and One Another


     We use each other and one another when we talk about an action or feeling that is shared by two
    or more people.
     We usually use each other when we are referring to two people.
     We usually use one another when we are referring to three or more people.
     Each other and one another often follow a verb.
    Example: a. The twins bought each other presents for Christmas.
    b. The family members sent one another Christmas cards.
     Each other and one another can also follow a preposition.
    Examples: a. Peter and John argued against each other.
    b. The whole class was silent. We all looked at one another.

    Suffix
     We add suffix –ness to some adjectives to form nouns. Nouns that end in –ness do not name
    people, animals, things or places. They name qualities.
    Adjective Noun

    sad sadness
    swift swiftness
    tired tiredness
    calm calmness
    kind kindness
    thick thickness
    happy happiness
    silly silliness
    ready readiness

     We add suffix –ly to some adjectives to form adverbs.
    Adjective Adverb Adjective Adverb
    savage savagely steady steadily
    gradual gradually weary wearily
    dainty daintily hasty hastily
    equal equally simple simply
    extreme extremely possible possibly
    immediate immediately miserable miserably
