VERBALS Verbal noun: noun derived from a verb Verb: action word “swimming”

Infinitive An infinitive is the word to combined with the simple form of a verb. Example: We all wanted to play baseball. *Remember that an infinitive includes a verb and shouldn’t be confused with a prepositional phrase starting with the preposition to, such as “to the street.”

Infinitive Examples 1. His goal was to succeed. 2. My brother likes to sing. 3. The team must score to win. 4.To laugh seemed rude, but the story was funny. 5.For the dishes tonight, your job is to dry.

Gerund A gerund is a verb form that acts as a noun Example: Baking is something she loves to do.

Gerunds Gerunds always end in –ing. A gerund can function in all the same ways a noun can function. Baking is something she loves to do. Baking is a gerund; it is a form of the verb to bake. Baking is used as a noun and functions as the subject of the sentence.

Examples of gerunds 1. Joan was punished for cheating. 2. Reading is an important skill. 3. For most birds, flying is a way to escape predators.
