问题描述
Monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD, concealed inside hollow bamboo walking canes.
请问concealed是不是属于悬垂分词错误？
老师答疑
曹老师：
这个句子中的concealed...不是状语，而是silkworm egges的非限制性定语，相当于一个which引导的非限制性定语从句。原句等于：
Monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD, which were concealed inside hollow bamboo walking canes.
正因为过去分词短语是定语，不是状语，因此只能位于句末位置。
如果误以为过去分词作状语，而将其置于句首，则成了悬垂分词，为语病。例如：
Concealed inside hollow bamboo walking cane, monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD.
如果说话人要用动词conceal作状语，则会使用现在分词。例如：
Concealing silkworm egges inside hollow bamboo walking cane, monks smuggled them to Constantinople in 550 AD.
Monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD, concealing them inside hollow bamboo walking canes.
还可以用介词加动名词结构：
Monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD by concealing them inside hollow bamboo walking canes.
由此可知，原句中的过去分词是定语，不是状语，因而不属于悬垂分词。句子是正确的，没有语法错误。
陈老师：
Monks smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople in 550 AD, (which were 省略了)concealed inside hollow bamboo walking canes.
