    KEY POINT: GERUND

    A gerund is usually defined as a word


    ending in –ing that is formed from a verb
    and that functions as noun specifically used
    as a subject, a subjective complement, an
    object of the preposition, a direct object,
    and appositive.
    AS A SUBJECT

    Exercising is good for our health.


    Loving someone unlovable is a
    feat difficult to achieve.
    SUBJECTIVE COMPLEMENT

    swimming.

    Infinitives are the “to” form of the verb. The


    infinitive form of the “learn” is “to learn”. You can

    the object of the sentence.
    TO + BASE FORM OF THE VERB = INFINITIVE
    SUBJECT

    my goal.
    To finish my study is a dream I
    want to offer to my parents.
