    This document discusses types and uses of participles in English. There are three types of participles: present, past, and perfect. Present participles end in "-ing", past participles are the past tense form of verbs including irregular forms, and perfect participles use having + the past participle. Participles can be used as adjectives or to show actions happening simultaneously or in sequence. They are commonly used to shorten sentences when the subject is the same in two clauses and to emphasize actions when used with certain verbs like see, watch, hear, feel and notice.
