Told can indeed be a participle or a verb, depending on the context.

Here it's verb: it's a past tense of "tell".

It could be a participle if the sentence were as follows:

I puffed by cheeks to get rid of the hiccups, told by my cousin to do so. (it's a weird formulation but not incorrect I believe)

What is freedom for you and why ? Explain in 5-6 sentences . Thank you
Cloud [144]
Freedom is to be able to connect with our responsibilities. By taking charge of things, we get to experience immense happiness and satisfaction. It gives us a chance to know how much of a workload we can handle at a time and how well we are able to manage. Freedom is the basis of reason. To be able to question everything before blindly accepting my fate. To question what is right and what is wrong without being afraid of any threats. Freedom to me is the only way for a caged bird to achieve happiness. I am free. Hope this helps!
