Question

Find the gerund from the sentence- I am getting tired listening to your complaints.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The first one is correct; the second is not. “Complain” is a verb, and using it implies that you object to listening to numerous unspecified complaints. The possessive “your” cannot modify a verb. “I’m tired of listening to your complaining,” “complaining” being a gerund or verbal noun, would work. If you want to be specific, you can reword second sentence using the noun form, “I’m tired of listening to your complaint.”

Answer 2

Answer:

listening is the gerund
