ANTE TODO • Both Spanish and English have past participles. • The past participles of English verbs often end in –ed (to turn > turned), but many are also irregular (to buy > bought; to drive > driven).
In Spanish, regular –ar verbs form the past participle by dropping –ar and adding –ado. Regular –er and –ir verbs form the past participle by dropping –er or –ir and adding –ido. INFINITIVESTEMPAST PARTICIPLE bailar bail- bailado comer com- comido vivir viv- vivido
¡ATENCIÓN! • The past participles of –er and –ir verbs whose stems end in –a, –e, or –o carry a written accent mark on the i of the –ido ending. caer caído (fallen) creer creído (believed) leer leído (read) oír oído (heard) reír reído (laughed) sonreír sonreído (smiled) traer traído (brought)
Irregular past participles (All end in –to except for dicho/hecho.)
NOTE: Verbs that conjugate the same way as the verbs with irregular past participles also have the irregular past participle formed in a similar manner. descubrir descubierto (discovered) cubrir cubierto (covered) hacer hecho (done/made) deshacer deshecho (undone/unmade) volver vuelto (returned to a place) devolver devuelto (returned something)
In Spanish, as in English, past participles can be used as adjectives. • They are often used with the verb estarto describe a condition or state that results from an action. • Like other Spanish adjectives, they must agree in gender and number with the nouns they modify. (o, os, a, as) • Like other descriptive adjectives, if they do not follow the verb “estar,” they must come after the noun being modified.
