@pooja195
I'm not good at english...sorry
oh
its ok
disliked meeting i think
Give me a second I'm thinking. please don't give direct answers out! thanks
A gerund phrase will begin with a gerund, an ing word
And they will function as a noun
oh
so what do you think the answer is
knowing that
They will be a subject. And they function as a noun. or they could be subject compliments.
Would an example sentence help you?
yes
Eating ice cream on a windy day can be a messy experience if you have long, untamed hair. Eating ice cream on a windy day = subject of the verb can be.
Jessica really enjoys bothering the neighbors with loud music.
wich one do i do?
he wont give a direct answer
They are both examples in different sentences. We already gave you a definition. Which do you think the answer is?
This is the math section, lol
ok
lol IKR
Nobody looks at English @ShadowLegendX
i think the answer in lod music
First off, a complete gerund phrase means that the first word of the phrase has "ing" in it
What answers follow that rule?
Bothering the neighbors with loud music is the direct object of the verb enjoys.
bothering?
Sorry forgot to tell you the answer in the EXAMPLE. What do you think the answer is in your question?
huh? I am looking at this one... http://assets.openstudy.com/updates/attachments/567873e3e4b012befeb5a877-mariahdimond-1450734590499-screenshot_34.png
metting one?
Do you think the answer is, A, B, C or D?
she got confused with my example, it was my fault sorry.
Here is the key, a complete gerund phrase functions as a NOUN What is a noun?
he siad it was a verb
Who?
AnimeWover
If so, he is incorrect. Complete gerund phrases function as nouns.
If you question that, Google
I nevr said it was a verb at al???
I said gerund phrases are words that have ing in them, they are objects so they would be the subject, or subject compliment
Ok, forget that. @MariahDimond what is a noun?
6R u saying I'm incorrect? qnq @ShadowLegendX
IF you said that a complete gerund phrase functions as a verb, then yes I would call you incorrect. If you didnʻt, cool.
Oh i said they function as a noun lol
Do you know what a noun is or means? @MariahDimond
uhh
i dont want to tell you
._.
LOL
:(
@MariahDimond I am trying to help you understand this. Anyway, a noun is a person, place, thing, or an idea.
@MariahDimond
thats why i didnt want to tell him i will just get made fun of
i know the answer
Which one of the answers starts with the a word that ends with "ing" AND functions as a noun(acts like a person, place, thing or idea). @bestpersonever123 Do not say it, let her figure it out
I said "LOL" because I didn't know why you didn't want to tell me in the first place.
@AnimeWover I gtg. You seem like you know this, try help her through it. If she still doesnʻt get it, I will be back on in an hour. Good luck @MariahDimond
ok
thank you shadow
if she cant figure out the answer then whats the point of waiting??
gerund is about a sentence that starts with ING. What sentence from the 4 starts with ING? Gerund usually functions as a verb, so they would usually be what the sentence is about. Basically a subject.
just give the answer!!
Because openSTUDY is to help people understand things
ok i'm giving it
I didn't give her an answer????
@pooja195
D. meeting one particular dog
The user has already been helped :-) Let's calm down.
oh
we already gave her so many hints
@MariahDimond post one question at a time please.
He basically gave the answer. @bestpersonever123 Don't do that again, it's against the rules??
she didn't understand, so we don't waste our time.
how is it against the rules?
you think you can roast me??
don't try, you'll start crying
It's against the rules because we help them understand the question and explain ti to them for future use. If i said what's is 3x3 and you tell me it's 9. I won't know how u got 9 instead I would just put 6 because I thought it meant addition
??
If you don't explain to me what multiplying is. how will I know how to do it?
1) This is openSTUDY not openANSWERS 2) Users come here for help you shouldnt be wasting your time, if you don't want to help simply get off of the post. "Users are on OS to learn when it comes to a test do you think it will help them when you simply give them the answer? It's OpenSTUDY not OpenANSWERS. If you can't explain GUIDE the user to the answer then don't answer any questions. "
