UNIT 96 ~ing and ~ed clauses (the woman talking to Tom, the boy injured in the accident)

A. A clause is a part of a sentence. Some clauses begin with ~ing or ~ed. For example:

Do you know the woman _talking to Tom?_(~ing clause)

The boy _injured in the accident_(~ed clause) was taken to hospital

B. We use ~ing clauses to say what somebody (or something) is doing (or was doing) at a particular time:

* Do you know the woman talking to Tom? (the woman is talking to Tom)

* Police investigating the crime are looking for three men. (police are investigating the crime)

* Who were those people waiting outside? (they were waiting)

* I was woken up by a bell ringing. (a bell was ringing)

When you are talking about things (and sometimes people), you can use an ~ing clause to say what something does all the time, not just at a particular time. For example:

* The road joining the two villages is very narrow. (the road joins the two villages)

* 1 live in a pleasant room overlooking the garden. (the room overlooks the garden)

* Can you think of the name of a flower beginning with 'T'? (the name begins with 'T')

C. ~ed clauses have a passive meaning:

* The boy injured in the accident was taken to hospital. (the boy was injured in the accident)

* Some of the people invited to the party can't come. (the people have been invited to the party)

Injured and invited are past participles. Many verbs have past participles that do not end in ~ed (made, bought, stolen etc.):

* Most of the goods made in this factory are exported. (the goods are made.

* The police never found the money stolen in the robbery. (the money was stolen)

You can use left in this way, with the meaning 'not used, still there':

* We've spent nearly all our money. We've only got a little left. For irregular past participles, see Appendix 1.

D. We often use ~ing and ~ed clauses after there is/there was etc.:

* There were some children swimming in the river.

* Is there anybody waiting?

* There was a big red car parked outside the house.
