2.Verbal:

-the gerund of transitive verbs can take a direct object(I have made a progress in understanding his speech).

-can be modified by an adverb(she burst out crying bitterly)

-has tense distinctions, the gerund of transitive verbs has also voice distinctions.(indefinite-he can swim without tiring, & perfect-she denies having spoken with him, passive & active-he liked neithe reading aloud, neither being read aloud to)

G & Participle:

G may be preceded by a preposition, may be modified by a noun in the possessive case or by a possessive pronoun, can be used as a subject, object, predicative. As an adv mod is always preceded by a preposition. If we have a gerund as part of a compound noun, the person denoted by the noun doesn’t perform the action expressed by ing-form: dancing hall-hall for dancing. If we have a participle used as an attribute the person denoted by the pronoun performs the action expressed by the ing-form: a dancing girl-girl who dances. 2 interpretations: hunting dog, sewing machine.

G & VERBAL NOUN:

  • G has double character, verbal noun only nominal.

  • G can’t be used without article, verbal noun-can(I want you to give my hair a good brushing).

  • G has no plural form, vn-our likings are regulated by our circumstanses.

  • G of a transitive verb takes a direct object: He received a lot of letters & had given up in reading them.

  • VN can’t take a direct object, it takes a prepositional object with of: She was rallying her nerves to the reading of the paper.

  • G can be modified by an adverb(drinking, even temperately, was a sin. VN may be modified by an adjective:Hi took a good scolding aout clodding Sam.

  2. With such verbs as to see, to hear, to notice, to come, to arrive, to seize, to look, to enter, to turn, to close, to open, to cross. PI Ind Act is used to express a prior action when the action expressed by the finite verb closely follows the action expressed by the P: Seeing that it was useless to argue with him, I dropped the subject.

  3. The conjunctions ”when” & “while” are often used with PI Ind Act to express an action in progress simultaneous with that of the finite verb: While making a tour of England, we were impressed by its beauty.

  4. PI Ind of the verb “to be” is not used as an adverbial modifier of time: “Когда я был в Москве»=”When in Moscow”


tThe functions of participle II in the sentence.

  1. Attribute

PII of transitive verbs corresponds to the Russian страдательное причастие or действительное причастие of some verbs ending in –ся a broken chair (сломанный стул), a newspaper published in Moscow (газета, издаваемая в Москве). PII can be used in post-position & in pre-position (without any accompanying words). He answered through the locked door. (Он ответил через открытую дверь). They turned into the large conservatory beautifully lit up with Chinese lamps. (Они свернули в небольшую оранжерею, красиво освещённую китайскими фонариками)

PII of intransitive verbs, which denote passing into a new state, corresponds to the Russian действительное причастие or to an adjective. Only in few cases PII of an intransitive verb may be used attributively, mostly PII of the verbs to fade(увядать), to wither(искушать, губить),to retire, to fall/ to vanish(исчезать). Faded leaves (увядшие листья).

An attribute expressed by the PII may be detached (отделён); in this case it often has an additional meaning of an adverbial modifier: The housekeeper had come out of her room, attracted by the violent ringing of the ball. (Экономка вышла из своей комнаты, привлечённая неистовым звоном колокольчика.)

Adverbial modifier.

  1. Of time


  1. Condition


  1. Comparison


  1. Concession (уступка)

PII preceded by the conjunctions when, while, if, as thought, etc.

When guestonied Annie had implied vaguely…that she was anxious about her brother-in-law. (Когда Энни стали расспрашивать, она дала понять, что беспокоится о своём шурине).

It was a dreadful thing that he now proposed, a breach of the law which, if discovered, would bring them into the police court. То, что он предлагал, было ужасно: это было нарушение закона, и, если бы оно открылось, их отдали бы под суд.

As if torn with inner conflict & indecision, he cried.Он плакал, словно его мучили внутренняя борьба и сомнения.

Her spirit, though crushed, wasn’t broken-хотя она и не была подавлена, но не была сломлена.


Predicative

In spite of himself, he was impressed. На него это произвело впечатление, помимо его воли.

Part of a complex object

She has found me unaltered; but I have found her changed. Она нашла, что я ничуть не изменился, а я нашёл, что она изменилась.


The Objective Participle Construction is a construction in which the participle is in predicate relation to a noun in the common case or a pronoun in the objective case.

It may be found:

  1. After verbs denoting sense perception (to see, to hear, to feel, to find, etc): Then he looked out of the window & saw clouds gathering. I heard my wife coming. She could feel her hands trembling exceedingly. I saw the pony harnessed myself. You will probably find your sister grown.

  2. After some verbs of mental activity: to consider, to understand: I consider myself engaged to Herr Klemser.

  3. After verbs denoting wish, such as to want, to wish, to desire. In this case only Participle II is used. The governor wants it done quick.

  4. After the verbs to have & to get, only PII is used. In this case the Objective Participial Construction shows that the action expressed by the participle is performed at the request of the person denoted by the subject of the sentence: Thus I had the piano tuned means “I made someone tune the piano”. He had several bottles of wine brought. Ему принесли несколько бутылок вина. In interrogative & negative sentences the auxiliary verb to do is used: Why don’t you have your hair waved? (Почему вы не сделаете завивку?).

The subjective Participial Construction.

The construction in which the participle (mostly the PI) is in predicate relation to a noun in the common case or to a pronoun in the nominative case, which is the subject of the sentence.

In rendering this construction in Russian a complex sentence is generally used; the principal clause is of the type which in Russian syntax is called «неопределённо-личное предложение».

The peculiarity of this construction is that it doesn’t serve as one part of the sentence: one of its component parts has the function of the subject, the other forms part of a compound verbal predicate:

They were hard talking together.

This construction is chiefly used after the verbs of sense perception:

The horse was seen descending the hill-Видно было, как лошадь спускалась с холма.

  2. Participle I Perfect can be used only as an adverbial modifier & never as an attribute. To express priority an attribute clause is used: The student who has shown the countries of America on the map is going to his seat.

  3. Sometimes the Participle I Indefinite denotes an action referring to no particular time: Taiga is a thick forest stretching to the south of tundra.

2.Predicative (Participle I Indefinite Active).

An attribute expressed by the PII may be detached (отделён); in this case it often has an additional meaning of an adverbial modifier: The housekeeper had come out of her room, attracted by the violent ringing of the ball. (Экономка вышла из своей комнаты, привлечённая неистовым звоном колокольчика.)

The Objective Participle Construction is a construction in which the participle is in predicate relation to a noun in the common case or a pronoun in the objective case.

It may be found:

  1. After verbs denoting sense perception (to see, to hear, to feel, to find, etc): Then he looked out of the window & saw clouds gathering. I heard my wife coming. She could feel her hands trembling exceedingly. I saw the pony harnessed myself. You will probably find your sister grown.

  2. After some verbs of mental activity: to consider, to understand: I consider myself engaged to Herr Klemser.

  3. After verbs denoting wish, such as to want, to wish, to desire. In this case only Participle II is used. The governor wants it done quick.

  4. After the verbs to have & to get, only PII is used. In this case the Objective Participial Construction shows that the action expressed by the participle is performed at the request of the person denoted by the subject of the sentence: Thus I had the piano tuned means “I made someone tune the piano”. He had several bottles of wine brought. Ему принесли несколько бутылок вина. In interrogative & negative sentences the auxiliary verb to do is used: Why don’t you have your hair waved? (Почему вы не сделаете завивку?).

The subjective Participial Construction.

The construction in which the participle (mostly the PI) is in predicate relation to a noun in the common case or to a pronoun in the nominative case, which is the subject of the sentence.

In rendering this construction in Russian a complex sentence is generally used; the principal clause is of the type which in Russian syntax is called «неопределённо-личное предложение».

The peculiarity of this construction is that it doesn’t serve as one part of the sentence: one of its component parts has the function of the subject, the other forms part of a compound verbal predicate:

They were hard talking together.

This construction is chiefly used after the verbs of sense perception:

The horse was seen descending the hill-Видно было, как лошадь спускалась с холма.


  1. Suddenly they heard a shout & the noise of falling stones.

Falling is an attribute in preposition expressed by PI Ind Act used to denote an action performed by the noun stones.

  1. A channel is a stretch of water, joining two seas of separating two bodies of land. Joining & separating are attributes in postposition expressed by PI Ind Act used to denote an action referring to no particular time.

  2. The soil being cultivated now is rich & fertile. Being cultivated is an attribute in postposition expressed by PI Ind Pas used to denote an action in progress simultaneous with that of the finite verb.

  3. The children sat round the fire, Friendly stars ere twinkling overhead, but dark hills round the valley seemed frightening. Seemed frightening is a compound nominal predicate which consists of the link verb to seem in its Past Ind tense form & the predicative frightening expressed by PI Ind Act.

  4. Judging by their happy faces they enjoyed the scenery. Judging by their faces is a participial phrase used as parenthesis.

  5. The party who had settled everything with Bob set off North-West towards the hills & the mountains of the Lakeland. Who had settled everything with Bob is an attributive clause in which the finite verb denotes an action prior to that of the finite verb of the principal clause, that’s why PI is not used here.

  6. While walking to the pond across the meadow, the two friends saw a lot of funny grasshoppers hopping here & there. Walking is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PI Ind Act used to denote an action simultaneous with that of the finite verb.

  7. When in Lake District, the tourists saw lots of lovely lakes. PI Ind of the verb to be is not used as an adverbial modifier of time. The clause of time when in Lake District is used instead.

  8. Being asked to give his impressions of the Lake District he did it willingly. Being asked is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PI Ind Pas.

  9. Hearing the drumming of the rain on the roof of the house in the night, the children woke up. Hearing is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PI Ind Act of the verb of sense perception to hear used to denote an action prior to that of the finite verb as the actions expressed by PI & the finite verb closely follow each other.

  10. Having crawled into his cozy sleeping bag, he fell fast asleep. Having crawled is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PI Perf Act used to denote an action prior to that of the finite verb.

  11. Having been given two loaves of bread, they left the bakery. Having been given is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PI Perf Pas.

  12. Knowing well the English landscape, she wasn’t struck by its “park-like” appearance. Knowing is an adverbial modifier of cause expressed by PI Ind Act.

  3. Having been joined by the canals, they make it possible to travel by water from one end of England to the other. Having been joined is an adverbial modifier of cause expressed by PI Perf Pas.

  4. They sat down in the heather for a rest enjoying the view. Enjoying is an adverbial modifier of attendant circumstances expressed by PI Ind Act.

  5. He went carefully down as if being afraid to get lost. Being afraid is an adverbial modifier of comparison expressed by PI Ind Act.

Participle II:

  1. “Don’t you think your wife & family miss you greatly?” thought ashamed he asked of the unwanted visitor. “I never thought about it,” replied the latter delighted, “but now you put it so nicely, I will wire for them to come down to join us.” Retired is an attribute in pre-position, expressed by PII of the intransitive verb to retire used to denote passing into a new state. Though ashamed is an adverbial modifier of concession expressed by PII. Unwanted is an attribute in pre-position expressed by PII of the transitive verb to want used to denote a passive meaning. Delighted is an attribute in post-position expressed by PII.

  2. Arriving at the Washington Zoo one day just as the monkey house was being closed for the day, the sightseers were surprised when they heard some terrific screams coming from the building. When asked, one of the keepers smiled & said, “The monkeys always act like that when we shut out the visitors. I think they get so much fun of watching people.” Were surprised is a compound nominal predicate which consists of the link-verb to be in its Past Ind tense-form & the predicative surprised expressed by PII. Some terrific screams coming is a complex object expressed by the Objective Participial Construction in which PI Ind Act coming denoting a process is in predicate relation to the doer of the action expressed by the participle. When asked is an adverbial modifier of time expressed by PII used to denote a pas meaning.

  3. I saw Ann playing. Ann playing is a complex object expressed by Objective participial construction. PI Ind Act playing is in predicative relation to the noun Ann in common case(to the pronoun her in the objective case). After the verb of sense perception to see.

  4. She was walking along the street. She walking is a complex Subject expressed by the subjective participial construction in which PI Ind Act is in predicate relation to the pronoun she in the nominative case(to the noun in the common case) which is the Subject of the sentence.



The functions of participle II in the sentence.

  1. Attribute

PII of transitive verbs corresponds to the Russian страдательное причастие or действительное причастие of some verbs ending in –ся a broken chair (сломанный стул), a newspaper published in Moscow (газета, издаваемая в Москве). PII can be used in post-position & in pre-position (without any accompanying words). He answered through the locked door. (Он ответил через открытую дверь). They turned into the large conservatory beautifully lit up with Chinese lamps. (Они свернули в небольшую оранжерею, красиво освещённую китайскими фонариками)

PII of intransitive verbs, which denote passing into a new state, corresponds to the Russian действительное причастие or to an adjective. Only in few cases PII of an intransitive verb may be used attributively, mostly PII of the verbs to fade(увядать), to wither(искушать, губить),to retire, to fall/ to vanish(исчезать). Faded leaves (увядшие листья).

An attribute expressed by the PII may be detached (отделён); in this case it often has an additional meaning of an adverbial modifier: The housekeeper had come out of her room, attracted by the violent ringing of the ball. (Экономка вышла из своей комнаты, привлечённая неистовым звоном колокольчика.)
