Agreement is Key

When 'superado' is used as an adjective (often with 'estar' or 'ser'), it MUST change its ending to match the person or thing it describes: 'superada' (feminine), 'superados' (plural masculine), 'superadas' (plural feminine).

Confusing the Two Forms

Mistake:Using 'Ella ha superada' (incorrectly changing the ending with 'haber').

Correction: When using 'haber' (has/have), the participle never changes: 'Ella ha superado'. When using 'estar' (is/are) to describe a state, it changes: 'Ella está superada'.
