VOCABULARY: Adjectives ending -ed and -ing

 

  Hi super-motivated students,
There are some adjectives that can end in -ed or in -ing. Depending on their meaning, we should choose one or the other:
- I have nothing to do. I am so bored
- I never want to do anyting. I am so boring!
Nobody wants to be boring but we are sometimes bored (not in the English class, of course!😉😉😉).
We translate the verb to be as ESTAR with adjectives ending in -ED; and we translate the verb to be as SER with adjectives ending in -ING.

 
 
 
Here you have a very useful explanation of this and some online exercises.
