Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in brackets: "The full cost of the repairs was ____ (bear) by the landlord."

توضیح

Bear runs bear — bore — borne, and borne is the participle for carrying, enduring and taking on an expense: a cost is borne, a claim is borne out by evidence, a weight is borne by a beam. The spelling born belongs only to the passive of the birth sense, as in she was born in Leeds, where no agent is normally named; it is never available for a bill that somebody absorbs.
