Adjetivos con -ing vs. Adjetivos con -ed

Hay adjetivos que describen como te sientes cuando los usas con -ed al final y cuando terminan con
ing describen la cosa o persona que te hace sentir de esa manera. Por ejemplo, la palabra
"interested" ("interesado" en espaol) describe como te sientes. Sin embargo, la palabra "interesting"
("interesante" en espaol) describe la persona o cosa que te interesa.

I'm bored. Describe como te sientes.

(Estoy aburrido.)
The movie is boring. Describe la cosa que te hace sentir as.
(La pelcula es aburrida.)
