Welcome to this tutorial today.

00:03.240 --> 00:06.610
We're going to talk about the past participle.

00:06.660 --> 00:08.010
Let's get started.

00:09.510 --> 00:18.030
Now a past participle refers to the form of a verb which is used in forming perfect and passive tenses

00:18.300 --> 00:21.410
and sometimes used as an adjective.

00:21.420 --> 00:24.390
Now have a look at the sentence over here.

00:24.450 --> 00:27.800
Olivia has lived in Greece for four years.

00:27.900 --> 00:35.550
In this sentence the past participle is used to form the perfect tense has lived.

00:35.560 --> 00:43.700
Now we usually add e d to the B's form of the regular verb to form the past participle.

00:43.720 --> 00:46.940
Have a look at the examples below.

00:46.960 --> 00:50.790
John has just painted this picture.

00:50.890 --> 00:58.540
Note that the past participle of the regular verb painted in the sentence is used in the present perfect

00:58.870 --> 01:02.800
and in the active voice and in this sentence.

01:02.800 --> 01:12.280
This picture was painted by John a month ago passport disposal is used in the past simple and in a passive

01:12.280 --> 01:15.320
voice.

01:15.330 --> 01:22.850
Now remember that there is no pattern as to forming the past participle of the irregular verbs.

01:22.860 --> 01:28.820
Now you should always consult a dictionary whenever you're in doubt.

01:28.930 --> 01:37.150
Remember the we can use the past participle a in the perfect tenses such as the present perfect the

01:37.150 --> 01:40.670
past perfect and the Future Perfect.

01:40.740 --> 01:43.530
Have a look at the examples below.

01:43.570 --> 01:47.290
I've eaten too much I can't move.

01:47.290 --> 01:54.760
Note that the past participle in this sentence is used in the present perfect and in this sentence.

01:54.760 --> 01:57.990
James had already left when Pam arrived.

01:58.210 --> 02:07.200
The past participle is used in the past perfect and in this sentence we will have landed by that our

02:08.220 --> 02:22.760
future perfect be the passive voice for example he was driven by genuine interest and curiosity this

02:22.760 --> 02:26.660
dress was made by a famous Italian designer

02:30.570 --> 02:33.060
see as an adjective.

02:33.060 --> 02:38.010
Now in this case please it before a noun.

02:38.050 --> 02:40.940
Have a look at the examples below.

02:40.960 --> 02:43.770
Mike has broken his arm.

02:43.960 --> 02:51.820
Now in this sentence the passport to spool is used in the present perfect but in this sentence he has

02:52.180 --> 02:54.340
a broken arm.

02:54.340 --> 03:05.490
In this sentence past participle is used as an adjective to describe the noun arm another example someone

03:05.700 --> 03:11.130
has stolen and puts her purse was stolen.
