In "The car was parked", what part of speech is "parked"?

I'm thinking adjective, but someone else thinks it's a verb.

  • Thanks for the link! How did you find it? I indeed did search around, and was certain that a similar question would have been asked and answered somewhere, but could not easily find an example. A general search like "adjective or verb after linking verb" didn't help much either.

  • I don't remember my exact search terms, but perhaps "past participle" and "predicate adjective". Feb 16, 2022 at 5:07
