    Good morning LuneLucide! :)

    « Excited » and « exciting » are related words, but they are used in different ways.

    The word « excited » is an adjective that typically describes a person's emotional state. It means « feeling very happy and enthusiastic ».

    • Sofia was really excited about her upcoming birthday party.

    In this case, « excited » describes the emotional state of Sofia.



    On the other hand, « exciting » is also an adjective, but it describes something that elicits the feeling of excitement.

    • The roller coaster ride was so thrilling and fast-paced; it was truly exciting!

    In this case, « exciting » describes the roller coaster and indicates that the roller coaster has qualities that can generate excitement.



    Here's a tip to distinguish these adjectives:

    When an adjective ends with -ing, it is used to describe the characteristics of a person, thing, or situation.

    When an adjective ends with -ed, it is used to describe feelings or emotions, expressing how a person feels.
