Answer:
Gerunds are words that are formed with verbs but act as nouns. They’re very easy to spot, since every gerund is a verb with ing tacked to its tail. There are no exceptions to this rule.

Answer:
A Gerund is a verb form ending in -ing that functions in a sentence as a noun.
Example:-
- I like cycling
- He enjoys cooking
- Painting is my hobby
Note that the participle does the job of an adjective while the gerund does the job of a noun. Compare the verbals in these two sentence.
- I bought a pair of swimming trunks.
( swimming ----> adjective -------> participle )
- I enjoy swimming
(swimming ------> noun ------> gerund )
