- 1Simple past and past participle of single.
The committee singled her report out as the strongest of the year.

Note
A regular past form: single simply adds -d, and one spelling serves as both past tense and participle (she singled; it has been singled). Single out is the familiar use, but the same form also covers a batter's one-base hit, thinning out, a horse's singlefoot gait, and cutting a railway to one track. That last use is transitive, so it readily goes passive: the line was singled.
