    DEFINITION:A participle is a form of a verb which is used in a sentence to modify a noun or noun phrase, and thus plays a role similar or identical to that of an adjective, or sometimes an adverb.

    If you used FIRM (in caps to show seriousness') and "dangly" in the same sentence would that be an "Oxy moron?"
