Part (past participle) of the passive form of the verb.

Both the present and past participles can function as adjectives:
An interesting film
A broken glass

However, in both of your examples, they are verbs and not adjectives, as Billmcd pointed out.

Forgive me for having a Twilight Zone moment here.

I seem to be the only one wondering what diplomacy means by

'Are /spoken and made/adjectives ending in "ing"?'

They clearly don't end in ing.

Rover:-?

Sorry,I meant the adjectives end in/past verb.

Ex: he is very bored.

So my question related to this rule.

Now I'm confused. How does "end in/past verb" fit with "He is very bored"?

My guess is that diplomacy wanted to ask about the adjectival use of past participles.
