Participle II

The past participle is the non-finite form of the verb which combines the properties of the verb with those of the adjective, serving as the qualifying-processual name. Unlike the present participle, it has no paradigm of its own.

Its verbal features are participation in the structure of the verbal predicate and the use as secondary predicate.

Its adjectival feature is its attributive function.

Similar to the present participle, the past participle can be used in postposition or in preposition to the noun.

Like the present participle, the past participle is capable of making up semi-predicative constructions of complex object, complex subject, as well as of absolute complex.

The absolute past participial complex as a rule expresses priority in the correlation of two events.
