Verbals- What Are They, Even? A verbal is a noun or an adjective formed from a verb. There are three kinds of verbals: gerunds, participles, and infinitives. Verbals express an action or state of being. The difference between verbals and other nouns and adjectives is that verbals can take their own objects even though they are not verbs.

Gerunds… say what? A gerund is a verbal that ends in –ing and functions as a noun. Gerunds can be used as a subject, direct object, subject complement, and object of preposition because it functions as a noun.

Gerunds as a Subject Traveling might satisfy your desire for new experiences. In this sentence we see that traveling is the subject of satisfy

Gerund as a Direct Object They appreciate my singing. Singing is used as a direct object because it answers the question of the verb (what are they appreciating? Singing) GERUNDS are super! Without them, verbs couldn’t be nouns!

Gerunds as a Subject Complement My mom’s favorite activity is running. Running is explaining the subject in this sentence (what activity? Running.)

Gerunds as an Object of Preposition The police arrested him for speeding. Speeding is the object of for in this example because it is explaining the prepostion (for what? For speeding.)

Gerund Phrase A gerund phrase consists of a gerund plus a modifier, object, and/or complement. Finding a needle in a haystack would be easier than what we're trying to do. Finding is the gerund in the italicized phrase. Needle is the direct object, and in a haystack is the prepositional phrase within the gerund phrase.
