I'm looking for more examples similar to this: "hanged vs. hung", namely the examples where both forms are correct but the meaning of each one is different. Can anyone help?

This often happens when a transitive form of the verb becomes regular, like shine. The intransitive forms are irregular: shine, shone, shone (e.g, His boots shone like the sun), but the transitive causative has the regular forms shine, shined, shined (e.g, He shined his boots till they glowed).

Hung is the past tense and the past participle of Hang, which means "to fasten or attach (a thing) so that it is supported only from above or at a point near its own top; suspend." according to dictionary.com.
Hanged means someone has been put to death by hanging.
A famous example like this would be lie, and lay.
( I think it would be better for you to do some research)
