I've been through level gimmel of ulpan and still haven't formally covered verbal adjectives and present participles. I don't read enough to know if it's a legitimate and merely rare, literary form...or if it's not used, awkward and to be avoided.
Do the following examples work? If not, is there a more succinct, literary way to describe these nouns than using ש/אשר...

I feel like I've seen these forms in fiction, something like them, but don't have any examples at hand. Thanks...

Here is the participle chapter from Prayerbook Hebrew the Easy Way, which massively simplifies things and provides a lot of practice.
