Something burnt has been changed, and usually ruined, by exposure to flame or high heat, whether it is a slice of toast left too long or a forest after a wildfire. British and Commonwealth writers generally use burnt as both the adjective and the past form of the verb burn, while American English tends to prefer burned for the verb and keeps burnt mainly for describing color, as in burnt orange or burnt sienna.
