"are heading the same way" or "are headed the same way"?
If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those people who are _______ the same way we are.
C. headed
D. heading
The key is C. But I think D is correct. Which option is correct anyway? Could you please explain it? Thank you.

Question

Answer

Hi.
Both are correct. If you use "headed" the word becomes an adjective modifying the verb "are" . This used to be called a "predicate adjective".

If you use "heading" then it becomes part of the verb in the present tense.

The expression " are headed" is very much in use and is what most (American) native speakers say in casual conversation.
