Thank you, this is so helpful!! :) Another way I like to remember infinitives is the phrase “to infinity and beyond” from toy story since it has ‘to’ :D

Gerunds always end in ing Gerunds are verbs ending in ing used as a noun. Infinitives -begin with to or not... Can also be used as nouns Root of the verb .. V1 Participle is a verb can be used as a verb phrase or as another part of speech besides a verb

Hi sir How to form a lengthy simple sentence by using non finite verbs

[@CozyGrammar]

Great question! The key to lengthy sentences lies in how you join a series of clauses. (If you need it, here's a review of clauses: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2rdoWmDj6eHlcU). Give it a try here and I'll offer you some pointers.

I've got a test tomorrow on this! I'm nervous tbh ty for this

[@CozyGrammar]

Good luck to you on your test! Let us know how it goes!

[@KnightTheValet]

@@CozyGrammar ok! I'll let you know how it goes! Hopefully it isn't too hard since my teacher usually makes things a bit difficult on tests!

[@nathanwilliams7496]

It ben a year how did it go

[@zion7271]

Imo i describe gerund always end up in ING so example my mom is singing i think that is a gerund While in infinitive My mom is singing because she really loves it I dont know if this is right

[@CozyGrammar]

Great question. Yes, gerunds always end in ING, but not all words that end in ING are gerunds. In your example, "My mom is singing," singing is actually what's called a present participle. Along with the helping verb IS it indicates the continuous action of singing in the present moment. A gerund is a present participle that is used as a noun. For example: My mom likes singing. Here, singing is being used as a noun because it is the thing, the activity, that your mom likes. Hope that helps!
