Note
One spelling does two jobs, because deposit is a regular verb. It is the plain past in "the river deposited silt" and the participle after have or be in "the funds were deposited on Monday." Only the auxiliary tells them apart. The participle can also sit before a noun to describe what has been laid down or paid in: deposited sediment, deposited savings.
