Subject: I used to type for an orthopedic doctor who (sm)

lay/laid
Subject: lay/laid

in this text, "We laid/lay the patient down." Would it be laid or lay? I understood the rule to be if it is an object then it is "laid" if a person, then "lay" which is the past tense of lie. Help! This is one that will forever confuse me

Thanks!!

Laid takes an object. sm
Subject: Laid takes an object. sm

If she laid down a box or other object, laid would be correct. However, in the sentence quoted, lay is an intransitive verb, meaning it does not take an object. Therefore, lay is correct. Laid is a transitive verb and must have an object.

Subject: Found this "cute" example for "was laid down" -- sm

Couldn't resist posting the following found on a grammar Q&A site. (If I read below correctly -- after I quit laughing!!! -- then in your example the patient is the direct object.)

I am always wondering about the past participle tense of the vulgar form, have I been lain?

by Larabees on 1/20/07
I'm pretty sure that you would have been laid. You would have been the direct object. That is, someone did it to you (i.e., laid you). Going back to the example given in the podcast: "It's pretty easy, you lay something down, people lie down by themselves..." So, someone laid you, you didn't lay yourself (I think).
