HELP WOTH WRITING WITH VERBALS AND APPOSITIVES :/ Having trouble with this. Instructions: Choose a topic of interest to you and write a paragraph, using verbals and appositives to make your writing lively. Make sure each sentence has at least one verbal or appositive. THANKS SO MUCH

lol I seriously did this project like two weeks ago

An appositive renames a noun. For example: Jim, a burly man, looked out of place in his tuxedo. In this case, “a burly man” is renaming “Jim.” A verbal is a verb that is written as another part of speech. For example: Written as an adjective - The children, crying and exhausted, were guided out of the collapsed mine. “Crying” and “exhausted” would be the verbals in the above sentence. Written as a noun – Crying will not get you anywhere. In this case, “crying,” is the subject of the sentence.
