用法筆記
Distinguish 'written' (past participle) from 'wrote' (simple past). Use 'written' after auxiliary verbs: 'has written', 'had written', 'was written'. Use 'wrote' alone for a finished action in the past without an auxiliary: 'She wrote the letter yesterday.'

文法句型
written + noun
用法筆記
The adjective 'written' appears almost always before a noun (attributive position). It commonly contrasts with 'spoken' or 'oral': a 'written test' involves reading and writing whereas a 'spoken test' involves talking. Unlike the verb participle, this sense does NOT refer to the act of writing itself.
