Como ya sabr\u00e9is el participio es una forma no personal del verbo, que funciona como verbo para los tiempos compuestos y la construcci\u00f3n de la pasiva, pero tambi\u00e9n puede actuar como adjetivo. Cuando el participio es regular, se utiliza la misma palabra en ambos casos. Sin embargo, algunos verbos poseen un doble participio, uno regular y otro irregular, lo que puede llevar a confusi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

Actualmente tan solo tres verbos presentan dos formas en el participio: imprimir<\/strong>, donde imprimido <\/em>ser\u00eda la forma regular, e impreso <\/em>la irregular; fre\u00edr<\/strong>, donde fre\u00eddo <\/em>ser\u00eda regular, (aunque est\u00e1 casi en desuso) y frito <\/em>ser\u00eda la irregular; y por \u00faltimo proveer<\/strong>, con prove\u00eddo <\/em>como forma regular, y provisto <\/em>como irregular. Ambas formas son correctas, aunque dependiendo de la zona variar\u00e1 el uso.<\/p>\n

IMPRIMIR <\/strong>(imprimido\/impreso)<\/p>\n

Como verbo: se pueden usar las dos variantes.
\nComo adjetivo: se usa con m\u00e1s frecuencia la forma irregular.<\/p>\n

FREIR <\/strong>(fre\u00eddo\/frito)<\/p>\n

Como verbo: se pueden usar ambas formas, aunque es m\u00e1s frecuente la forma irregular “frito”.
\nComo adjetivo: solo se usa la forma irregular “frito”.<\/p>\n

PROVEER <\/strong>(prove\u00eddo\/provisto)<\/p>\n

Como verbo: se pueden usar ambas formas.
\nComo adjetivo: se pueden usar las dos formas, pero “provisto” se usa con mayor frecuencia.<\/p>\n

Hasta hace algunos a\u00f1os se consideraban participios algunos adjetivos que ten\u00edan su ra\u00edz en un participio latino, por lo que esta lista era mucho mayor, como pod\u00e9is comprobar con los ejemplos al final del post. La forma irregular tiene solo funci\u00f3n adjetiva, salvo los tres verbos mencionados antes y en los casos en que la forma regular no existe, o ha ca\u00eddo en desuso, como es el caso de \u201crompido\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"keep-calm1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Esta tarde he imprimido <\/em>una copia de cada uno de mis posts (I have printed a copy of each one of my posts this afternoon). Or is it \u201cHe impreso <\/em>una copia de cada uno de mis posts\u201d? Have you ever had this dilemma? Today, we are going to see where it comes from.<\/p>\n

As you already know, the past participle it is a non-personal form of the verb, which works as a verb in the compound tenses and the passive voice, but can also act as an adjective. When the participle form is regular, the same word is used in both cases. However, some verbs possess a double participle, a regular and an irregular form, and this can be misleading.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, there are only three verbs with two forms in the past participle: imprimir <\/strong>(to print), where imprimido <\/em>would be the regular form, and impreso <\/em>the irregular one; fre\u00edr <\/strong>(to fry), where fre\u00eddo <\/em>would be regular, (though it is almost in disuse) and frito <\/em>would be the irregular one; and finally proveer <\/strong>(to provide), with prove\u00eddo <\/em>as regular form, and provisto <\/em>as irregular. Both forms are correct, though depending on the zone its use will differ.<\/p>\n

IMPRIMIR<\/strong> (PRINT) (imprimido\/impreso)<\/p>\n

As verb: both options can be used.
\nAs adjective: the irregular form is more frequently used.<\/p>\n

FREIR<\/strong> (TO FRY) (fre\u00eddo\/frito)<\/p>\n

As verb: both forms can be used, though it is more frequent the irregular form “frito<\/em>“.
\nAs adjective: only the irregular form “frito<\/em>” is used.<\/p>\n

PROVEER<\/strong> (TO PROVIDE) (prove\u00eddo\/provisto)<\/p>\n

As verb: both forms can be used.
\nAs adjective: both forms can be used, but “provisto<\/em>” is most common.<\/p>\n

Until recently, some adjectives with Latin roots were considered to be participles so this lists was much longer, as you can see with the examples you will find above. The irregular form only functions as adjective, with the exception of the three verbs mentioned before, and in the cases in which the regular form does not exist or is in disuse, as is the case of “rompido<\/em>“:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
