Примечание:

1. В функции определения в английском языке употребляется только простое (неперфектное) причастие I, которое выражает действие, одновременное с действием, выраженным сказуемым предложения. Русские причастия прошедшего времени совершенного вида (написавший, сказавший и т.п.) следует переводить на английский язык определительными придаточными предложениями с глаголом в личной форме.

Мальчик, приехавшийвчера в Москву, - мой брат. - The boy who came to Moscow yesterday is my brother.

Этот спортсмен, пробежавший длинную дистанцию, выиграл соревнование. - The sportsman who had run a long distance won the competition. Сравните:

Человек, что-то пишущий за столом         Человек, написавший эту книгу,
у окна, - наш преподаватель.                        хорошо знает жизнь студентов.

The man writing something at the table           The man who wrote this book
near the window is our teacher.                       knows the life of students well.

2. Отдельно взятое причастие, а также причастные обороты,
состоящие из причастия + наречие, могут стоять как перед
определяемым ими существительным, так и после него. Причастные
обороты, состоящие из причастия + предложный оборот или из
причастия + дополнение, могут стоять только после определяемого
ими существительного:

the playing children - the children playing in the yard

a smoking man - a man smoking a cigarette

a broken tree - a tree broken during the storm

3. В отличие от русского языка, в английском языке
определительные причастные обороты, как правило, запятыми не
выделяются.

4. Содержание определительного причастного оборота соответ-
ствует содержанию определительного придаточного предложения.
Причастный оборот с Participle I соответствует определительному
предложению в активной форме, а оборот с Participle II -
определительному предложению со сказуемым в пассивной форме:

Atomic stations producing energy ... = Atomic stations that (which) produce energy. (Active Voice)

Our cities visited by foreigners ... = Our cities that (which) were visited by foreigners. (Passive Voice)

Причастия, стоящие перед определяемым существительным, переводятся на русский язык причастием действительного залога настоящего или прошедшего времени, оканчивающихся на -щий или -вши, или причастием страдательного залога настоящего или прошедшего времени на - нный, - тый, - мый, - вшийся, - щийся. Причастия, стоящие после существительного, переводятся на русский язык соответствующей формой русских причастий или определительным придаточным предложением.
