Created: 4 days ago

B
A participle
C
An infinitive
D
A finite verb
Education is enlightening.
এখানে ‘enlightening’ শব্দটি ‘Education’ শব্দকে modify করছে, অর্থাৎ adjective-এর মতো কাজ করছে।
মূল ধারণা:
-
Participle হল এমন একটি verb যা noun বা pronoun কে describe করতে পারে।
-
Participle একই সাথে verb + adjective হিসেবে কাজ করে।
-
Verb যখন adjective-এর মতো ব্যবহৃত হয়, তখন তাকে participle বলা হয়।
ধরন:
-
Present Participle (-ing):
-
উদাহরণ: Do not disturb a sleeping dog.
-
এখানে ‘sleeping’ হলো present participle, যা ‘dog’ কে describe করছে।
-
-
Past Participle (-ed, -d, -t, -en, -n):
-
উদাহরণ: This is a book written by Charles Dickens.
-
এখানে ‘written’ হলো past participle, যা ‘book’ কে describe করছে।
-
-
Perfect Participle (having + past participle):
-
উদাহরণ: Having eaten rice, he went to bed.
-
এখানে ‘Having eaten’ হলো perfect participle, যা ক্রিয়ার সম্পন্ন হওয়ার অর্থ প্রকাশ করছে।
-
সারসংক্ষেপ:
-
Participle মূলত verb-এর আকার হলেও noun বা pronoun modify করে adjective-এর কাজ করে।
-
Present participle → -ing,
-
Past participle → -ed / -en / অন্যান্য আকার,
-
Perfect participle → having + past participle।
