Why is the adjective word "frozen" after the verb in *Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone*? > Mr. Dursley sat frozen in his armchair. If I change the sentence to > Mr. Dursley sat happy in his armchair. The sentence is wrong, because "happy and "frozen" are adjective words. Why can't I replace "frozen" with "happy"? In my opinion, the "frozen" is an adjective word. It can't go after the verb "sat".
