The past participle form of the verb "cross" is "crossed". Participle forms are really helpful in English as they can be used in several ways - past participles, for example, can be used to form compound tenses such as perfect and past perfect tenses. They're also really handy in passive voice sentences. For example, "The road was crossed by the chicken to get to the other side." There you have it, the chicken has completed its action and hence we use the past participle "crossed". Language, much like a meandering river, is full of these interesting twists and turns!
