Oui, des collaborateurs ont participé
Explication :
Le verbe "participer" est conjugué ici au passé composé. Il s'agit d'un verbe intransitif (il n'a pas de complément d'objet direct), donc le participe passé ne s'accorde pas avec le sujet quand il est conjugué avec avoir. On écrit donc "participé" sans "s".
The correct sentence in English is: "Yes, collaborators participated."
Explanation:
In French, "ont participé" is the past tense (passé composé) of participer (to participate). Since the verb doesn’t take a direct object, the past participle doesn’t change — even if the subject is plural.
A direct object is the person or thing that receives the action of a verb directly.
Example:
I eat an apple.
Verb: eat
Direct object: an apple (it's what is being eaten)
In French:
Je mange une pomme.
"Une pomme" is the direct object of "mange"
Another example:
She reads the book.
Verb: reads
Direct object: the book
But in:
They sleep.
There is no direct object (you don’t “sleep” something), so sleep is intransitive.
