Sam
Hi I'm Sam from BBC Learning English and this is me in class. How am I feeling - bored or boring?
I was feeling bored because the lesson was boring. So the lesson was the reason I felt bored.
So –ed endings describe the feeling and –ing endings describe the reason you have that feeling.
And this works for other adjectives too. So if the lesson is interesting, I feel interested. If something is tiring, I'm tired. If something is relaxing, I'm relaxed. If something is surprising, I'm surprised. If something is exciting, I'm excited.
So, tell us how these videos make you feel.
