    Some words

    In the Prolog of a book it explains the target of commentaries that appear along with the exercices:
    "The target of the commentary is to make clear to the student the difference between his mother tongue and this he is studiying.
    Комментарии снабжены схемами и таблицами, которые наглядно представляют те или иные особенности русской фонетики."
    General sense of the phrase is clear but I would prefer a rather precise. The problem is how link "commentaries" with "supplies". Tks.

    It is present passive
    The commentaries are provided with/supplied with schemes and tables.

    It is indeed a present passive construction, but the word снабжены is a past passive participle (as in English: provided/supplied)

    Past participles

    I thought in this meaning, but as it didn't fit in my "home-made" schemes of past participles (always in fieri)... :
    Past participle: с.в. -енн-, -нн-, -т-

    No.

    Firstly you have put "past participles". There are two types - active and passive. The one you have incorrectly summaried is the PASSIVE type. The actives looks completely different: Читавший

    Past passive participles =

    -н (short form) / -нный (long form)

    e.g. сделан / сделанный
    сделана / сделанная
    сделано / сделанное
    сделаны / сделанные

    -т (short form) / -тый (long form.
    открыт / открытый
    открыта / открытая
    открыто / открытое
    открыты / открытые




    In the predicate the short form is used.

    Are you being sarcastic or do you actually want it in one line?

    Because you shouldn't be summarising stuff so much. One line is not enough for quite complex grammar points.

    Look, here is my revision note for Spanish!:

    They speak it in Spain and other places.

    Wow....

    But if you must:

    Past Passive Particple (Short form / Long Form): -н / -нный, -т / -тый.
