What is the underlined phrase?
Spinning around in circles is the underlined phrase
sorry about what
it should be the subject
that's fine, just give me a sec
hmm...I'm not exactly sure what it is, but I don't know if it's the subject. @Compassionate can you help us?
well a gerund is a verb that ends with -ing, and is being used as a noun
it's not part of the predicate, and it comes before the preposition "after", so I'm pretty sure it's the subject
so what do you think @k_lynn
I think I'm gonna say B, Subject. Though I'm not entirely sure
oh okay thx tho @k_lynn
yep
I gave you a medal for asking.
thx so much
