What is a participle?

A participle is a type of verb form that functions as an adjective in a sentence. It is derived from a verb and typically ends in -ing (present participle) or -ed (past participle). Participles are used to describe or modify nouns or pronouns in a sentence. They can also be used to form verb tenses or verb phrases.
