Use of the word "leave"

Here is the way I would say this:

The five-minute walk around the block left him exhausted and his shirt soaked through with sweat.

MrPernicketyleft him exhausted

resulted in his being exhausted (extremely tired)

MrPernicketyhad sweat through

had perspired until the perspiration came through to the surface of

Hi,

The five minutes walk around the block left him exhausted and he had sweat through his shirt

I just want to comment on the last part.
he had sweat through his shirt If 'sweat' is intended as a noun here, the sentence is not idiomatic.

However, I think the writer here is trying to use 'sweat' as a verb,i n Past

www.m-w.com accepts both sweat and sweated as inflected forms (and this very editor that I'm using to write this post does not accept sweatedas correct!!!

Hi CJ,
It's probably an AmE/BrE thing.

There was a similar debate in another thread about pet vs. petted..
I note that 'pet' and 'sweat' rhyme. There must be something about this monosyllabic sound that makes Americans want to shorten it.. Or perhaps it's just the influence of verbs like 'bet' and wet'.
