A gerund is a verb form that ends in "ing" and functions as a noun in a sentence. For example, in the phrase "Running is fun," the word "running" acts as the subject of the sentence, even though it is derived from the verb "run." Gerunds can be used in various ways, such as subjects, objects, or complements, allowing actions or activities to be discussed in a noun-like manner.
