Question

Puzzle 1: Identify the Verbal
Vocabulary Practice:
1. Participle
2. Gerund
3. Infinitive
4. Participle
5. Gerund
6. Infinitive

Answer 1

Yes — those identifications are correct (assuming they match the sentences in the original exercise).

Quick reminders to tell them apart:
- Participle: a verb form used as an adjective (present participle = -ing, past participle often -ed or irregular). Example: "the running water" (running = participle modifying water).
- Gerund: a verb -ing used as a noun. Example: "Running is fun" (running = gerund, subject).
- Infinitive: to + base verb, used as a noun, adjective, or adverb. Example: "to run is healthy" (to run = infinitive, subject).

If you want, paste the original sentences and I’ll label each one and explain why.
