Which sentence uses the verb hang correctly, given its separate object and execution senses?
Erklärung
Everyday suspension uses hang — hung — hung, so a coat put on a hook was hung there. Washing on a line is the same ordinary sense and needs hung as well, while careful English reserves hanged for putting a person to death — the pirates sentence describes exactly that, so the prescribed form there is hanged, even though hung is often heard in that sense.
