1. Did you see the cat lying on the roof?
2. Give the eraser to the man sitting down.
both sentences were originally relative clauses:
1. Did you see the cat that was lying on the roof?
2. Give the eraser to the man who is sitting down.
With the relative pronoun and the verb 'be' removed, what is the new name for these sentences/clauses?
And the participles 'lying' and 'sitting' as these now acting as adjectives?
Thx.
