I did not know that.

Does that only apply to hanging a person? Is it correct to say the laundry was hung out to dry? It just sounds wrong to me to say the laundry was hanged on the line! But I have to say it sounds correct to say that Hitlery was hanged for treason.

Yes, laundry is hung, but a human is hanged.
