Thank you very much would you please please help me with the function of present participle in these examples I'm bit confused 1- They caught him *stealing* the money 2- When I got home , I found them *sleeping* 3- Don't place the knife with its pointed edge *facing up* 4- H e sat on the sofa *watching* Tv. 5- I left the test room *feeling* confident. 6- He sat *huddled* in arm chair *crying* Sorry for having included too many examples.
1) adverbial modifier of attendant circumstances or manner 2) objective participle (complex object) 3) attribute 4) adverbial modifier of manner 5) the same 6) attribute... adverbial modifier of manner
@@nmodel thank you so much❤️ Just what do you mean by attribute in example 3 & 6? participle (reduced adjective clause) used as an adjective to modify or describe a noun telling us what they are doing for example?.
@@nmodel thanks a lot . Just a last question. Crying in example 6 is an adverb of manner telling us how he sat? . He sat crying .right? Thank you you're a great teacher and you have got a new subscriber
Could I reverse the next sentence adding AFTER?: "Having finished the job, I decided to take a break" to "I decided to take a break AFTER having finished the job" .... Is it ok??? I will wait for an answer, I will be grateful. Thanks
I don't think it is good to use "after + perfect participle", because PP implies priority itself and does not need any additional markers for this. If you want to use "after" I'd go for present participle instead of perfect participle. For example, "I decided to take a break after finishing the job". But as for me , the participle construction looks better at the beginning of the sentence in this case. But it is just my stylistic preference: "after finishing the job, I decided to take a break"
@@GabOrtega94 My pleasure :) Just one more thing to note - when you use "after + ing" the "ing" form, in my opinion, acquires the features of a verbal noun, rather than a particple. But this is something that diffrent people may view differently
I have a daubt sir, participle is non-finit,and you told that it is used as continuous tense too In continuous tense verb 4th form is used as finite verb
@@justenglish7741 oh no problem with that. No mistake. They don't have tense forms, but they are used to form certain tense forms of verbs. You can read about it here www.teachingenglish.org.uk/article/participles

Basically, there are the present participle and the past participle. However, participles have got aspect categories (perfect, perfect continuous). The past participle in most cases has got passive meaning and that is the main difference from the present participle. In your examples, I can see only the present participle.
Thank you infinitely
