participles as adjectives

A participle is a verb dressed up as an adjective: 'running water', 'an open window', 'a read book'. They sit in front of the noun and agree with it like any adjective. About six minutes.

open, written, running — verbs that describe

The passive participle (-n / -t) says what was done to the noun: odprto okno (an open window), napisano pismo (a written letter), prebrana knjiga (a read book). The active present participle (-č) says what the noun is doing: tekoča voda (running water). Either way they behave like ordinary adjectives — agreeing in gender, number and case: odprt (m) / odprta (f) / odprto (n).
