Answers
Answer :
According to Cambridge English Dictionary, main verbs have three basic forms: the base form, the past form and the -ed form (sometimes called the ‘-ed participle’):
base form: used as the infinitive form, with to or without to (Do you want to come with us? I can’t leave now.) and for the present simple (I always read before I go to sleep every night.) except third person singular, which uses the -s form (She works at the university.)
past form: used for the past simple (He opened the door and went out.)
-ed form: used after auxiliary have and be (I’ve always wanted a piano and I was given one last week.).
Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'gerund' as 'a word ending in "-ing" that is made from a verb and is used like a noun.'
In the given sentence, the gerund form of the verb will be used in the following manner :
D. Would you mind coming to my house, please.
Would you mind coming to my house, please?
