GERUNDS IN LINGOJAM
Gerunds in Everyday English
​
In everyday English a gerund (verb + ing) acts like a noun in a sentence.
Gerunds are verb forms which function as nouns, in Latin ending in -ndum (declinable), in English ending in -ing, and in Lingojam ending in -nM.
Gerunds in Lingojam act similarly to French but the preposition used can be chosen; while eating (en mangeant), pon arriving (en arrivant).
