‘interested’ or ‘interesting’?

‘interested’ or ‘interesting’?

Should we say Interested 또는 Interesting?

English learners often are not sure whether to use the “-ing” ending or “-ed” ending for adjectives that express emotions. Some examples of these adjectives, derived from verbs, are:

  • exciting/excited
  • interesting/interested
  • boring/bored
  • amazing/amazed
  • confusing/confused

Here’s a general rule to help you remember the difference:

  • When talking about yourself or your feelings, use the –ed ending. “I am interested in music.”
  • When talking about others or something outside yourself, use the –ing ending. “That music is interesting.”
