Past Participle is the hundred-tenth skill (assuming read left to right) in the language tree for Dutch. It has two lessons and teaches these adjectives derived from verbs

Grammar Notes[]

The past participle of a verb (its "have X" form) can also be used as an adjective:

  • het gekookte ei = the cooked egg
  • het gebruikte auto = the used car

Pay attention though to the ending of the participle; if it ends in -en, it does not get any adjective endings:

  • de gesneden appel = the cut apple
  • de gelezen boeken = the read books
