Usage Note: Hanged, every bit a past tense and a past participle of hang, is used in the sense of "to put to death by hanging," every bit in Frontier courts hanged many a prisoner after a summary trial. In our 2008 survey, some 71 per centum of the Usage Panel objected to hung used in this sense. The Console's opposition to this usage has remained strong since balloting began in the 1960s. In all other senses, hung is the preferred class equally past tense and past participle, as in I hung my kid's picture higher up my desk.
