ed & -ing adjectives Catherine: Hi Deniz! Mark didn’t like the film. He used the words ‘boring’ and ‘bored’. We use –ing or ‘ing’ adjectives to give more information about things. So if we go to
see a really dull film, and nothing much happens, and the film even makes me feel
quite sleepy, I can say that the film was boring. I use an –ing adjective – boring
– to describe the film. Let’s listen to Mark:
Mark: I watched that film on television last night. It was really boring. I was
just bored by it.
He uses the –ing adjective to describe the film.
Mark: It was really boring.
But if I want to talk about my feelings about the film – how the film affected me, I
use an –ed or ‘ed’ adjective – I was bored. Here’s Mark again:
Mark: I was just bored by it.
He uses the –ed adjective to describe his feelings about the film.
Mark: I was just bored by it.
So it’s –ing adjectives for other things, and –ed adjectives for my feelings. The film
was boring, and I was bored. Now there are only a certain number of adjectives that
work like this. The most common ones are:
Bored / boring
Excited / exciting
أخيكم / سيد إسماعيل
