1 meaning of stirred

1
verb
Simple past and past participle of stir.
A gentle breeze stirred the leaves along the path.
She had stirred the paint thoroughly before opening the second can.
Note
A regular past form with one spelling quirk: the final r of stir doubles before -ed, so it is stirred, never stired. One spelling serves both the simple past (she stirred the soup) and the participle (she had stirred it; the crowd was stirred). After be or an adverb, the participle often carries the emotional and inciting meanings: deeply stirred, stirred to action.
