The participle is a non-finite verb form that possesses properties of both verbs and adjectives (and sometimes adverbs). It can be used to create verb phrases, participial phrases, and adjectival phrases. Participles, as verb forms that function as adjectives, can be used to modify or describe nouns, effectively turning them into attributes. When a participle is used to modify a noun, it acts like an adjective, providing additional information about the noun.
