Hello Teachers,

What is "present gerund".Is there this term in English grammar vocabulary?

Thanks for your helps.

[Hi_there_Carl]

Gerunds are nouns formed from verbs. There are two types of gerund: present gerunds, which look like present participles (e.g. "soaring" and "falling") and past gerunds, which are formed by preceding a past participle with the word "having" (e.g. "having forgotten" and "having neglected").
