Question

how do you find if a word is a verb or gerund?

Answer 1

Answer:

To determine whether a word in a sentence is a gerund, look at the word(s) ending in –ing in the sentence. If this word can be replaced by the pronoun it, then the word is a gerund. If the word it replaces other words in addition to the gerund, then these make up the gerund phrase (Lester 177).

Answer 2

If an action verb is transitive, it has a direct object. When you find the verb, you can ask ''what'' or ''whom. '' A gerund phrase consists of a gerund with a direct object
