12:35:15 <ash> hmm
12:35:20 <ash> is it begun or began
12:35:34 <ash> or are they both correct in different grammatical contexts
12:43:09 <JarZ> alternate spellings of the same, it seems
12:43:16 <JarZ> began is more popular though
13:00:02 <ash> i thought maybe began is past tense, like "i began that yesterday", and begun is like "the fun has just begun"
13:04:42 <Carson> yeah, thats what i would have thought

17:30:26 <Timegrinder> began is past tense
17:30:31 <Timegrinder> (they both are, I mean)
17:30:49 <Timegrinder> 'has just begun' infers it had a beginning previous to 'now'
17:31:04 <Timegrinder> and HIIIIII
17:35:28 <ash> past tense vs past participle
