The participle in this sentence is "past"

Participles have different functions within a sentence. In this case, the past participle is "clipped" and ends with "ed".  The past participle "clipped" functions as an adjective since it is modifying the noun "tails".

The option "present" is incorrect since present participles are formed by verb infinive+ing.

Present participle would be 'clipping'. Perfect participle would be 'having clipped'. Therefore, the only option left is 'past participle'.

The witness's voice was steady and firm as she averred, "That is the man I saw."
Agata [3.3K]

If we imagine ourselves in the scene in which the witness speaks with a firm and confident voice saying "that is the man  I saw", the most probable thing is that it convinces us because she is very sure of herself, the witness does not doubt it for a moment, she/he is stating it.

The word <u>averred</u> can be replaced by <u>stated</u> since they have the same meaning. Other synonims can be claim, declare or affirm.
