    WAIT!!!! What kind of database MUST be repaired regularly???? :w00t:

    The one that is shrinked regularly?

    Guess shrinked is the simple mode and shrunken is the full recovery mode

    😎

    Go ahead, make fun of my lousy english 😛

    Actually, that might help me to remember the correct form.

    Which form? The first normal form? 😀

    No, the first normal form is surely scrincaþ (or scrinceþ, if databases aren't feminine) - or maybe scrinceð (or scrincað) or perhaps even gescruncan; even shrinked is a modern aberration, and anyway just the silly southern spelling of shrenkit; shrunk and shrunken are weird hyper-modern forms of schrunken and shronke. Nobody speaks English anymore. 😀

    Anyway, "shrinked" (the southern spelling of "shrinkit") has been around for quite a bit more than half a millenium; but ignorant spelling and grammar pedants will claim it's a utterly wrong :angry: so that it's safer to stick to shrunk (past participle or adjective) and shrunken (adjective, possible past participle but not with "have" as auxiliary verb).
