Suffix
- Alternative form of -ed now only standard with words which end in -e, but historically permissable in all the same places as -ed.
- bone → boned, learn → learnd
- An empty suffix, perhaps derived from the past-tense suffix above, added in some dialects to the present tense forms of some words which then add an additional -ed in the past tense.
- damn → damnd (→ damnded), drown → drownd (→ drownded)
