Attributive participial clauses are used as relative clauses whose subject is the head. The only difference is that the tense of a participial clause describes the time relative to the main clause. Note that attributive participles take a possessive suffix; the possessor of a participle is the direct object if the participle is active, and is the agent if the participle is passive. | Attributive participial clauses are used as relative clauses whose subject is the head.
