GERUNDS

To form a gerund, we must use the base form of the verb + ING.

read + ing = reading

write + ing = writing

We can use the gerunds in a 3 principal ways:

1. Use the gerund as the SUBJECT of a sentence:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      WRITING is very important to Carlos Cuauhtémoc Sánchez                                                                             
2.  Use the gerund as the OBJECT  of a sentence after certain verbs like: enjoy, acknowledge, recall, etc.                                                                                                                                                                                     Carlos Cuauhtémoc Sánchez enjoys WRITING.
