This is tricky. Generally you'd say "cancelled" if you are referring to something in the past. And if you are already using the word had, has or have. But if you use "did", then you'd have to use "cancel."Have you already cancelled the reservation? [this is perfect tense. If you use the words have, had or has, you must use the participle, which is cancelled]Is that the check you already cancelled?But ... We might still want to go there. Why did you already cancel the reservation?Did you already cancel our appointment?


Is cancelled an adjective?

Is this sentence grammatically correct- Today's meeting will be cancelled?

It is. In American English, the preferred past tense of cancel is "canceled" with one L, whereas other English speaking countries such as the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, the preferred past tense is "cancelled" with two L's. Both are technically correct in all countries and one L versus two is a stylistic choice.
