==== Hindi and Urdu ==== There are two types of participles in [[Hindi]] and [[Urdu]] (called together [[Hindustani language|Hindustani]]), aspectual participles which mark the aspect and non-aspectual participles which do not mark verbal aspect. The table below mentions the different participles present in [[Hindustani grammar|Hindustani]], ''ɸ'' denotes the verb root. The aspectual participles can take a few other copulas after them besides the verb '''''honā''''' "to be". Those copular verbs are '''''rêhna''''' ''"to stay", '''ānā''' "to come", '''jānā''' "to go".<ref name=":2">{{Cite book|last=Shapiro|first=Michael C.|title=A Primer of Modern Standard Hindi|publisher=Motilal Banarsidass|year=1989|isbn=81-208-0475-9|location=New Delhi|pages=216–246}}</ref>'' {| | {| class="wikitable" | colspan="7" |'''''ASPECTUAL PARTICIPLES<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Tokaj|first=Jolanta|date=2016-06-01|title=A comparative study of participles, converbs and absolute constructions in Hindi and Medieval Rajasthani|url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/317806929|journal=Lingua Posnaniensis|volume=58|pages=105–120|doi=10.1515/linpo-2016-0007|doi-access=free}}</ref><ref name=":4">{{Cite journal|last1=Subbarao|first1=K.|last2=Arora|first2=Harbir|date=2009-01-01|title=The Conjunctive Participle in Dakkhini Hindi-Urdu: Making the Best of Both Worlds*|url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/284936098|volume=70|pages=359–386}}</ref>''''' |- !
