Review participles

participles

Finds standalone participles while excluding recognized compound tenses and passive constructions.

Usage of this metric

When enabled and matches are found, the report contains one item with this metric_id in result.suggestions. Absence means no match was found, not that the metric was not evaluated.

Location in the resultresult.suggestions[]metric_id = "participles"

Calculation method

Uses participle tags (VBN in EN) and excludes auxiliaries, compound tenses, passive forms and auxiliary lemmas.

Result interpretation

Each `occurrences` item identifies an affected span. `start` is inclusive and `end` exclusive, both measured in Unicode code points over the submitted text. `replacement`, `alternatives` and `edits` contain values only when a safe change is available. Absence means no match was found, not necessarily that the text is correct.

Limitations

Results depend on FreeLing/DiSeg tagging and may contain false positives or miss ambiguous constructions.
