1. First and foremost, a participle is the form of a verb, but it is not a verb.
2. Second, it is an adjective.
3. And finally, it ends in "ing" or "ed" or "en."

[In the following examples, the participle is bold and the verb is underlined.]

1. As the colonies became a new nation dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, public schools had another purpose.
   
   • First find the subject and verb of each clause: COLONIES BECAME and SCHOOLS HAD.
   • With that done, we can see that DEDICATED is not the subject. Instead, it describes the word NATION. Therefore, it is an adjective. A form of a verb that ends in ED, EN or ING and acts as an adjective is a participle.
   
   
2. Transformed by the national economy, urban factories developed a need for disciplined, obedient workers.
   
   • The subject (factories) DEVELOPED. So what does TRANSFORMED do? It describes FACTORIES.
3. Learning to solve problems in groups, the students began to understand how to fit within the social structure.
   
   • Identify the subject and verb. What is this sentence about? STUDENTS. What is the verb? BEGAN. What part of the sentence does LEARNING go with? The subject. It describes STUDENTS, so it is a form of the verb acting as an adjective—a participle.

The steps to finding a participle:

I. Find the subject and verb to eliminate any confusion.

1. Al Gore, knocked around by Bill Bradley for being "pro-gun," is confidently pushing gun control to the forefront of his presidential campaign.
   • AL GORE is the subject. IS PUSHING is the verb. KNOCKED is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective, modifying Al GORE.
2. The activist called for a waiting period for gun purchases to help reduce illegal gun trafficking.
   • The subject is ACTIVIST. The verb is CALLED. WAITING is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective, modifying PERIOD.
3. Headed by conservative media watchdog leader Brent Bozell, the Parents Television Council announced the results of a study.
   • The subject is THE PARENTS TELEVISION COUNCIL. The verb is ANNOUNCED. HEADED is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective, modifying the subject.
4. The network reported on the springtime ritual of young men and women flocking to warm beaches around the globe.
   • The subject is NETWORK. The verb is REPORTED. FLOCKING is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective, modifying men and women. It can't act as a verb without an auxiliary verb. For example: Young men and women WERE flocking to warm beaches.
     

II. Decide what part of the sentence the verbal belongs to.

1. The statement issued by Columbia noted that a current weakness of the Internet is the inability to authenticate material.
   
   • The subject is STATEMENT. The verb is NOTED. ISSUED is part of the complete subject. It is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective.
2. The armed services struggle to meet recruiting goals in a tight job market.
   
   • The subject is SERVICES. The verb is STRUGGLE. RECRUITING is part of the complete predicate. It is a form of the verb, acting as an adjective modifying goals.
     

Tóm lược:

Present participles chấm dứt bằng -ing (jumping, burning, speaking). Past participles Thường chấm dứt -ed, -t, or -en (jumped, burnt, spoken).

• Barking dogs seldom bite. (động tính từ hiện tại ‘barking’ diền tả danh từ ‘dogs’.)
• A rolling stone gathers no moss. (động tính từ hiện tại ‘rolling’ diễn tả danh từ ‘stone’.)
• Don’t cry over split milk. (động tính từ quá khứ ‘spilt’ diền tả danh từ ‘milk’.)
• Sweep away the fallen leaves. (động tính từ quá khứ ‘fallen’ diễn tả danh từ ‘leaves’.)

Không nên lầm lẫn participles và động từ (verb). Một trợ động từ (auxiliary verb) không được đi trước participles, xem các thí dụ sau:

• Dejected, Alice left the room. (Participle)
• Alice was dejected. (Verb)

Participles có thể kết hợp với từ khác vào Cụm Động Tính Từ.Chúng đóng vai của adjectives (tính từ), như trong các thí dụ:

• Rejected by all his friends, he decided to become a monk. (Cụm Động Tính Từ ‘rejected by all his friends’ diễn tả Đại Danh Từ "he".)
• Most of the people invited to the party didn’t turn up. (Cụm Động Tính Từ ‘invited to the party’ diễn tả danh từ "people".)
• Not knowing what to do, I telephoned the police.
