"The students may be affected by the recent bus crash." What is the part of speech of "affected"?
Answered by SraJMcGin
What if this said "are affected?" Would you know then how this is used?

My contention is that "affected" is a participle (a verb functioning as an adjective),describing the subject "students", and "be" is a linking verb.
