Grammar

Adjectives ending in -ed/-ing

Explanation:

Adjectives that end '-ed' (e.g. 'bored', 'interested') and adjectives that end '-ing' (e.g. 'boring', 'interesting') are often confused.

-ed adjectives

Adjectives that end '-ed' describe emotions - they tell us how people feel about something.

• I was very bored in the maths lesson. I almost fell asleep.

• He was surprised to see Helen. She'd told him she was going to Australia.

• Feeling tired and depressed, he went to bed.

-ing adjectives

Adjectives that end '-ing' describe the thing that causes the emotion - a boring lesson makes you feel bored.

• Have you seen that film? It's absolutely terrifying.

• I could listen to him for hours. He's one of the most interesting people I've ever met.
