Burned for me is an adverb, where as, burnt is an adjective. I burned the toast. The toast is burnt.

Luciana🏳️⚧️🇵🇸🇵🇷 :
To me "burned" is a partial burn, "burnt" is "this thing is now charcoal." Also it's "you burned the toast" vs "this is a piece of burnt toast," like an active vs passive thing

Heidi Bowman :
I always thought “home in” meant to get towards the point you’re trying to make and “hone in” meant to clarify to a specific point and it’s almost there (sharpen)

What? It’s “hone” isn’t it?

DudeDont :
It can definitely be “hone in” because there in fact exists a honing machine that sharpens instruments (dental) and you can “continue honing your skills” meaning to sharpen them or you can “hone in” meaning to sharpen your focus
