About this listen

Students need to focus more on past participles!
Past participles are found in six different grammatical constructions: perfect verb tenses, the passive voice, reduced relative clauses, past participial phrases, the modal perfect, and as adjectives. Understand these six uses and you will more easily decode long and complex sentences, especially in advanced texts.
Episode 121 reviews and consolidates our work in four of these six constructions, and gives an introductory explanation of two new ones- past participles in the modal perfect and as adjectives.
Listen to Episode 121 to finally get a complete picture of how to use this important and underestimated verb form.
