throw「投げる」の不規則な過去分詞が thrown です。発音は throw /θroʊ/ に /n/ が加わった /θroʊn/。have thrown なら「投げた」、be thrown なら「投げられる」と覚え、例文の was thrown や had been thrown の形で定着させましょう。

Connect thrown directly with the irregular verb throw: throw–threw–thrown. Its pronunciation is /θroʊn/, essentially throw followed by an /n/ sound. Use the surrounding auxiliary to identify its role. In the ball was thrown, be plus thrown forms the passive and focuses on the object that someone threw. In someone has thrown the ball, have plus thrown forms the perfect aspect. Practising these two frames—be thrown and have thrown—makes the form easier to recognize and use accurately.

例文

ボールは壁の向こうへ投げられました。

A stone was thrown into the river.

石が川に投げ込まれました。

The keys had been thrown on the table.

thrown の語源・成り立ち Etymology

古英語 þrāwan(ねじる、回す)の過去分詞形に由来。原義は「ねじる」で、投擲の腕の回転動作から「投げる」の意味に発展した。ゲルマン祖語 *þrēaną に遡る。関連語:throw(投げる)の変化形、thread(糸)は「よりをかける」という同根の動作に由来する。

Thrown is the past participle of throw, which comes from Old English thrāwan, originally meaning “to twist” or “to turn.” The sense developed from turning or twisting to the rotating movement involved in casting an object. Its unusual form preserves the inherited strong-verb pattern seen in throw–threw–thrown rather than forming the past participle with the regular ending -ed.
