-ING+-ED+ADJECTIVES

-ED and –ING adjectives
Adjectives that end ‘-ed’ (e.g . ‘ **bored**’, ‘**interested**’) and adjectives that end ‘-ing’ (e.g. ‘**boring**’, ‘**interesting**’) are often confused. Adjectives that end ‘-ed’ describe emotions – they tell us how people feel about something. Adjectives that end ‘-ing’ describe the thing that causes the emotion – a boring lesson makes you feel bored. Remember that people can be **boring** but only if they make other people feel **bored**.
