Participle II as adverbial modifier. § 148. The adverbial function and meaning of participle II can be seen only from the general meaning of the sentence




 

§ 148. The adverbial function and meaning of participle II can be seen only from the general meaning of the sentence. In the vast majority of cases, when used adverbially, participle II is preceded by a conjunction, which explicitly indicates the semantic type of the adverbial modifier.

Participle II may serve as an adverbial modifier of:

 

time, usually with the conjunction when or until:

He is very affable when spoken to, but naturally silent.

He won’t stop arguing until interrupted.

 

reason:

Deprived of his wife and son by the Spanish adventure, Jolyon found the solitude at Robin Hill intolerable.

 

condition, mostly with the conjunction if or unless:

I shall certainly give evidence on your behalf, if required.

John will speak for hours, unless interrupted.

 

concession, with the conjunction though or although:

Though asked in disarming sociability, Haldone’s question was loaded.

 

comparison, with the conjunction as if or as though:

“I get off the train,” he repeated as if hypnotized.

 

Predicative constructions with participle II

 

§ 149. Participle II forms the second (verbal) element of the objective with the participle construction and of the absolute participial construction in two variants: non-prepositional and prepositional.
