Verbals

Past Passive Participle — Kṛdanta

The PPP is used in over 30% of Sanskrit prose constructions. Instead of a finite verb, Sanskrit often prefers the PPP + a form of "to be" (implied). रामेण कार्यं कृतम् (kāryaṃ rāmeṇa kṛtam — "the work was done by Rāma") is more common than रामः कार्यं करोति in narrative texts. Learn this suffix and half of classical Sanskrit narrative opens to you.
