Explanation:
A participial phrase is a group of words that consists of a participle, its modifiers, and any objects that complete that thought.

- Past participles - they usually end in -ed (for regular verbs), and less often in -en, -t, -d, and -n (irregular verbs). Example:<em> bake - baked</em>.
- Present participles - they end in -ing. Example: bake - baking.
