5 EXAMPLES OF one or more gerund phrases.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A gerund is a verb that is used as a noun. For example, "Her cooking is delicious." Normally, cooking would be a verb (e.g.-"She is cooking dinner for her sisters.") but because it is "her cooking" it funtions as a noun. Another example would be "Running is my hobby." For a gerund phrases, the sentence has to begin with the gerund ("Riding my bike to the store can be great excercise") and includes other modifiers and objects ("can be great excercise") Hope this helps.
