Participle clauses & linking

Participle clauses skraćuju dve povezane rečenice; linking words objašnjavaju vreme, razlog i kontrast.

Present participle (-ing)

-Ing konstrukcija može da opiše istovremenu radnju ili razlog, obično sa istim subjektom.

CorrectWalking home, I met Anna.
IncorrectWalk home, I met Anna.

Za skraćenu aktivnu klauzu koristimo -ing.

Past participle (-ed/V3)

Past participle clause često ima pasivno značenje.

CorrectBuilt in 1900, the house is protected.
IncorrectBuilding in 1900, the house is protected.

Kuća je izgrađena, nije ona gradila.

Having + past participle

Having done naglašava da je jedna radnja završena pre naredne.

CorrectHaving finished the report, she left.
IncorrectHaving finish the report, she left.

Posle having ide past participle.

Zapamtite: Proverite ko vrši radnju. Kod participle clauses subjekat skraćene klauze obično je isti kao subjekat glavne rečenice.
