Are stood and along adjectives?
"Stood" is usually the past tense or past participle of stand (so yes, it is a verb). Example: "The person stood up." Past participles, however, often function adjectivally in constructions where the main verb is a form of be (were, was, has been). In those cases, the past participle describes a state: "They were seated," "The door was locked." In "They were stood by the door," were is the auxiliary/main verb, and stood is a past participle describing their positioned state — that is, it functions adjectivally (archaic, dialectal, or formal-styled). It is nonstandard in some varieties but perfectly valid as a stylistic choice in literary or archaic tone. "Along" is most commonly a preposition (as in "along the hall" = preposition + object). It can also function as an adverb ("The project is moving along") or appear in phrasal verbs ("get along"). Thus, it is not only a preposition, although that is its usual role. The above answer ("No. Stood is a verb … and along is a preposition") is misleading: It is correct that stood is a verb in many contexts but wrong to claim that it cannot function adjectivally or as a past participle in constructions like "were stood." It is correct that along is a preposition but incomplete to claim that it cannot also function as an adverb in other contexts. Hope this helps; The Grammar Demon
