It is helpful to classify participles according to
|
|
their function in the sentence as a whole: as a :ref:`verb<verb>` (or verbal complement);
|
|
as an :ref:`adjective<adjective>`; or as a :ref:`noun<noun>`.
|
|
Participles can function independently as their own grammatical entity, but they often
|
|
introduce entire clauses that function either as adjectives or nouns. |
