Q4. State whether the highlighted word is a gerund or a participle or an infinitive.

A.Working is her number one priority.
a, participle
b. gerund
c. infinitive
d. None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

The underlined verb is a gerund because it functions as a noun apart from being structured as a verb. It is the object of the sentence. It does not function as an adjective and, thus, is not a participle.
