Sentence examples for perfect participle from inspiring English sources

(2) A complex passive is formed either with Old Scandinavian verða (Swedish varda, New Norwegian verta) or Low German bliven (Danish blive, Dano-Norwegian bli) and the perfect participle.

Complex verb phrases are formed with modal auxiliaries (e.g., kan 'can') and infinitives or with the perfect auxiliaries ha ve) 'have' and få 'get' (Icelandic geta) and the perfect participle.

New compound passive tenses were formed with the perfect participle and esse 'to be' (e.g., est oneratus 'he, she, it was burdened')—such compound tenses developed further in Romance.

Nonfinite forms of the verb have invariable suffixes (-a or -e for the infinitive, -ande or -ende for present participles, and -at or -et for perfect participles), except that Swedish and New Norwegian mark gender when the perfect participle is used adjectivally.

Participles are verbal adjectives formed with the suffixes (active imperfective and aorist participle), (perfect participle) and or (mediopassive participle), among others.

Perfect and present participles as adjectival verbs are very common: Perfect participle: en stekt fisk; "a fried fish" (steka = to fry) Present participle: en stinkande fisk; "a stinking fish" (stinka = to stink) In contrast to English and many other languages, Swedish does not use the perfect participle to form the present perfect and past perfect.

The Greek in that crucial verse, "Lamb standing as if it had been slaughtered" uses participles in the perfect tense – arnion hestekos hos esphagmenon.

Slavic has almost no traces of the Indo-European old perfect tense but, from combinations of a participle (verb + suffix l + masculine, feminine, or neuter endings) and forms of 'to be,' created new perfect (and pluperfect) tenses.

For Present perfect the formula is "haber + present participles".

(Note: the past perfect is formed with the auxiliary had + past participle, the present perfect is formed with the auxiliary have + past participle).
