Yes- had begun,

[killiegirl]

Do Began and Begun not mean the same??

[dannyk13]

Yes but you would not say had began

[Mamyalynne]

Had qualifies it.


The day commenced (began)bright and clear.

The day had commenced (begun)as a bright and clear one.

[magay]

yes both the same but depends what the compiler of the crossword has put down. ill go with begun . thank u every one for your input.ive just begun to make a cup of coffee. Now ive began to drink it.

[Mamyalynne]

They aren't both the same when used with 'had', that's why the setter made it clear.

Enjoy your coffee.
