Question

She likes to sing. It is her passion.
(joining using a gerund)​

Answer 1

Answer:

verb form which can be used as a noun. Gerunds have many roles. Sometimes they act like subject, complement of a sentence, object of a verb or objects of prepositions.

How do we form gerund from verb?

When we add ‘ing’ with verb it becomes gerund (e.g. learning, singing, dancing etc)

Examples:

• Singing is my passion (singing is ‘subject’ in this sentence)

• I like singing (singing= object of verb ‘like’ )

• I want to give 6 hours to singing every day. (singing= object of the preposition to)

• Reading helps us to learn fast. (Reading= subject of sentence)

• My passion is reading. (Here, reading is complement of sentence)

• I love travelling (travelling= object of sentence)

Gerunds can be made negative by adding “not.”
