Note also that the Simple Passive participle form (studied) is often called Past Participle or Perfect Participle.
英语有非常规整、独立的时和体,看上去很逻辑。简单说来,就是4个时,4个体,两个态(voice: 主动语态,被动语态),构成32种时(体)态的组合:如,主动态现在完成时态包括主动态(active)、现在时(present)和完成体(perfect),被动态一般过去时态包括被动态(passive)、过去时(past)和一般体(simple)。英语动词的形式32种,元素周期表那样规整漂亮,尽管实际使用的动词形式只有约20种形式(下列时态表格的左上部分)。用二维图表达这种组合颇一目了然:常常是主动语态一个表,被动语态一个表,好反映三维关系(图表见下)。
关于“了”字的用法,汉学家写过一车文章。譬如,只是动词后的了1(看了电影)才表达完成体,而句末的了2(看电影了)则表达语气,如果恰好遇到一个不及物动词位于句末,则有歧义,具体表达体还是语气或者两者都沾点儿,需要具体情况具体分析。关于了字的用法,钻牛角尖没大意思。二位的争论听上去太小儿科。
