tulnud

"Tulnud" means "come" or "arrived" (past participle).

In a sentence

  • Ta on hiljuti siia tulnud.

    He has recently come here.

    In this sentence, 'tulnud' is in its active past participle form, describing a completed action related to movement.

  • Ei ole teada, kust ta tulnud on.

    It is unknown where he has come from.

    Here, 'tulnud' functions similarly as a past participle, emphasizing the completed nature of the movement.

  • Ma olen kodutöö juba tulnud kohta andnud.

    I have already submitted the homework to the intended place.
