[@swalih8205]

Thank you all of my questions related to participle phrase as adjectivs were cleared. But how about adverbial phrases? 🤔

[@thelearningdepot]

Great suggestion!

[@swalih8205]

@@thelearningdepot so the confusion is "realizing he is going to fail the exam Jaden hired a tutor" in this sentence participle phrase "realizing he is going to fail" can also be an adverbial phrase depending on the context? Because here it also sounds like describing the verb "hire". I mean A. why did he hire? B. Realizing he is going to fail. So here it also seems like describing the verb "hire". So would it also work like this depending on the surrounding of the context. ?

Running shoes are very expensive... Walking stick is very helpful for elderly people.... Can you please let me know whether the above phrases are gerund phrases or participle phrases... As they are functioning as subjects,should they be considered as gerund phrases or because walking and running are modifying nouns,they should be considered as participle phrases?

[@NuMS420]

This is the question in our exam. Which of the following exemplifies a sentence with participial phrase? A. Having finished the homework, Matt turned on the television. B. Walking in the hallway is one of my morning routines. My answer was A because the phrase acts as as an adj. It describes the noun (Matt). However, it's marked as wrong according to the answer key. I just want to clarify this and I hope that you can help me. I am very confident with my answer though. Thank you in advance 😊

[@thelearningdepot]

You are correct. The first one is the participial phrase which acts as an adjective. The second is a gerund phrase acting as a noun. You could replace it with the pronoun “this” to test it out.

To avoid the such confusing cases just it should have the different endings for the verbal nouns and adjectives. For example.... move, moving, movement. You always know what is a noun and what is an adjective here.

Hello Lulu, thank you for this video! Super helpful 🙂 I tried a sentence - 'The lady standing over there is my mother.' Am I right in thinking this sentence would be a participle phrase since 'standing' is acting as a postmodifier participle, making 'standing over there' a participle phrase? Thank you for your help!

Hello there! just wanted to inquire about a sentence that goes like, " San Francisco is a BUSTLING CITY in California". Now in this sentence, BUSTLING CITY plays the role of Gerund or Participle. I believe it to be participle because we can not replace it with IT, THIS, THAT. But the site where I was giving a quiz marked it as a Gerund.

[@thelearningdepot]

It is a gerund. If you remove everything else and leave “city” you can see it clearly. Thanks for watching. 😊

It was an exciting trip... I am confused whether participle+noun as in exciting trip should be treated as a gerund phrase or a participle phrase... As the phrase starts with a participle,should it be considered as a participle phrase but this phrase is not qualifying any of the rules like replacing them with pronouns or removing from the sentence..
