@CharlizaLatimore Same here

Answer 3

yeah its gerund

Answer 4

It's not a Gerund.. That's what I though but I got it wrong.. @CharlizaLatimore

Answer 5

it is not a gerund because a gerund functions as a noun and the noun in this sentence is flag not fluttering so it will probably be a participle cause it is not a preposition or a verb.
