Izazov #5: Interested or Interesting? Engleski pridevi na -ed ili -ing

Dobrodošli na stranicu Interested ili Interesting? Pridevi na -ed i -ing

Pridevi koji se u engleskom jeziku završavaju na -ed-ing često se brkaju. Bored ili boring, interested ili interesting, u čemu je zapravo razlika..?

I was really bored in that presentation. - Baš mi je bilo dosadno na toj prezentaciji.
I was really boring in that presentation. - Baš sam bio dosadan na toj prezentaciji.

Dakle, razlika je ogromna! Nije svejedno da li si ti dosadan, ili je tebi dosadno... možeš da zamisliš kako pogrešna upotreba prideva može da napravi zbrku u konverzaciji.

Zato ti mi u nastavku teksta kratko i jasno objašnjavamo kada koristiš pridev sa -ed, a kada sa -ing.

-ed pridevi

Pridevi sa nastavkom -ed generalno opisuju osećanja – oni nam govore kako se neko oseća.

I was so bored in that lesson, I almost fell asleep.
He was surprised to see Helen after all those years.
She was really tired and went to bed early.

-ing pridevi

Pridevi sa nastavkom -ing opisuju ljude, stvari i situacije koji izazivaju ta osećanja – a boring lesson makes you feel bored.

Have you seen that film? It's really frightening.
I could listen to her for hours. She's so interesting.
I can't sleep! That noise is really annoying!

Evo najčešćih prideva koji mogu da imaju i -ed i an -ing nastavak:

annoyed annoying
bored boring
confused confusing
disappointed disappointing
excited exciting
frightened frightening
interested interesting
surprised surprising
tired tiring
worried worrying

A sada uradi test da vidiš da li ti je sve jasno 🙂
