adjectivized participle
6 years ago Hello, everyone!
Could you explain what "adjectivized participle" is? How could I know wherher it is adjectivized or not?
Context:
"The predicative is the significant part of the compound nominal predicate. It can be expressed by Participle II (Past Participle) or very seldom Participle I (Present Participle); the latter is generally adjectivized.
He was surprised at the sound of his own voice. (London)

It is very distressing to me, sir, to give this information. (Dickens)
The moment was soothing to his sore spirit. (Sanborn)"
