What Is the Past Participle of “Binge Drinking”?
Question by Code Monkey: What is the past participle of “binge drinking”?
Im writing a paper and I need to figure out how to word this sentence:
“They report that 15% of the adult American population has binge drunk five or more drinks on a single occasion”
“binge drunk” doesn’t seem right… the past part. of “binge” is “binged”, but am assuming you would not change it because it is a noun in this case. Any thoughts?
This is the right excerpt:
“They report that 15% of the adult American population has binge drunk, meaning they have consumed five or more drinks on a single occasion”
