Hello,
How do I distinguish adjectives like these - separate and separated?
As I understood they could mean quite the same. There are a lot of words like separate which can be used either as verbs or adjectives. Such verbs can be transformed into adjectives by adding ed. For example:
separate (adj) - separated (adj)
aggregate (adj) - aggregated (adj)
Is there any way to choose such words properly?
Thank you in advance!
