usage:Since the latter part of the 18th century, a distinction has been made betweenborn andborne as past participles of the verbbear.borne is the past participle in all senses that do not refer to physical birth:The wheat fields have borne abundantly. Judges have always borne a burden of responsibility.borne is also the participle when the sense is “to bring forth (young)” and the focus is on the mother rather than on the child. In such cases,borne is preceded by a form ofhave or followed byby: She had borne a son the previous year. Two children borne by her earlier were already grown. When the focus is on the offspring or on something brought forth as if by birth,born is the standard spelling, and it occurs in passive constructions and in adjective phrases:My friend was born in Ohio.
