If the book is great and fun, I call it 'an interesting book' rather than 'interested book.' When life is fantastic, I call it 'charming life.' But here why he used 'charmed'? | I agree with tdol's reply. :D In addition, it's often, but not always the case that -ed expresses, altered/changed by, like this,
a burnt tree (a tree that has been altered/changed by fire)
a burning tree (a tree that is burning now)
a charmed life (a life that has been altered/changed by luck)
a charming life ( a life that is charming, pleasant)
All the best, :D |
Agreed. It's like,
a sleeping child ( a child who is sleeping and maybe is having sweet dreams)
A sleeping car ( a car that provides passengers space to rest or sleep)
So back to my context, I think both can be used to get lucky. Can't they?
