Steam "ed"
Why is there "ed" on "steam" when there is no third person singular? Thanks
It's served with steamed rice and steamed vegetables.
The term "vegetable" generally means the edible parts of plants. Why is there a "s" on "mean" if there is no third person singular before "mean?" Is "generally" third person or a preposition?
