Exercise 1: Participle Exercises For Afrikaans Grammar


Participle in Afrikaans grammar refers to verb forms that can function as adjectives or adverbs, describing the action or state of a noun without explicitly stating the subject. In Afrikaans, participles come in two forms – the present participle (called “deelwoord” in Afrikaans, which usually ends with “-[opew2]”) and the past participle (called “volt-dooien-dee” in Afrikaans, generally formed with the prefix “ge-” followed by the verb stem and sometimes modified endings). The participle plays an essential role in the construction of compound tenses, passive voice, and gerunds. In this exercise, we’ll explore some example sentences to better understand and practice using participles in Afrikaans grammar.
