We first saw examples of pàirtearan caithte (past participles) aig A1.
These are formed from verbs and are used as adjectives.
In English they typically have an -ed ending, in Gaelic the ending is usually -te, with -ta used in a few examples.
Past participles are one of the exceptions to the caol ri caol is leathann ri leathann Gaelic spelling rule.
The -ta ending is used with dèanta, but more often than not the -te ending is used even when this breaks the spelling rule, for example: cleachdte, sgrìobhte.
