A passive/reflexive participle is often used as an independent
|
||||
grammatical entity, although it can introduce entire clauses similar to the :ref:`active<participle_active>` participle.
|
||||
Passive participles are generally more limited in meaning than active participles.
|
||||
Passive participles are governed either by the main verb of a sentence or by the
|
||||
context; thus, they can express action in past time, present time,
|
||||
future time, or without any specified timeframe.

Functions as an :ref:`adjective<adjective>`
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
This is the most common use of the passive participle in Biblical Aramaic.
|
||||
An adjectival passive participle can function as either an :ref:`attributive<adjective-attributive>` adjective
|
||||
or a :ref:`predicative<adjective-predicative>` adjective. The context must determine whether a passive participle
|
||||
is functioning as a predicative adjective or as a main verb, because both appear the
|
||||
same in many instances (compare EXO 5:16 and 1SA 19:11).
|
||||
|
||||
The following example shows a passive participle functioning as an attributive adjective.

The following example shows a passive participle functioning as a predicative adjective.

The following example shows passive participles introducing an entire clause that functions as a predicative adjective.

Functions as a :ref:`finite<verb-finite>` main verb
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
The context must determine whether a passive participle is functioning as a main verb or as a predicative adjective,
|
||||
because both appear the same in many instances (compare 1SA 19:11 and EXO 5:16). In the following example, the participle
|
||||
is in the first position, which is the normal :ref:`word order<word_order>` for finite verbs but not for participles.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: The subject of a verbal participle usually
|
||||
precedes the participle, in contrast to the normal conventions of Aramaic
|
||||
:ref:`word order<word_order>`.
