Samantha granados delgado wrote a document about gerunds and infinitives for her class. The document defines a gerund as a verbal ending in "-ing" that functions as a noun and can occupy positions like subject, direct object, and object of a preposition. It provides examples of using the gerund with like, love, and enjoy to talk about habitual actions. It also discusses using the infinitive with like and love, and would like/prefer to for specific wishes or suggestions.

3. “GERUND”A gerund is a verbal that ends in -ing and functions as a noun. The term verbal indicates that a gerund, like the other two kinds of verbals, is based on a verb and therefore expresses action or a state of being. However, since a gerund functions as a noun, it occupies some positions in a sentence that a noun ordinarily would, for example: subject, direct object, subject complement, and object of preposition.USE THE GERUNDUse the gerund (verb+ing) to talk about things you generally like/love/enjoy: I like reading. I love dancing. I enjoy going to the movies.I She to gogoingseeinglikeloveenjoysto the theatermovies
