'Well-read' and its class According to my understanding, English adjectives derived from past participles usually carry a meaning of passitive voice relating to the nominal phrases that they modify, such as ' a well-designed startpage', ' a carefully folded sheet'. But there are some (not many----am I right?) where there is no meaning of passive voice, but there is meaning of active voice, for example, ' a well-read and cultured woman', where 'read' in 'well-read' does not mean the woman is read but means she reads a lot. I once met such a word of the same type, but I cannot recall it now, when I was greatly confused. And now I see 'well-read', I decide that this is a 'special' class of words. Could you please give some other words of the same class? It's better that the words are commonly used. ( If no other commonly used ones, please give any as you know). Besides, if you give some more explanation of this kind of words, I'll be grateful.
