Gerund 

GERUNDS 

A Gerund is a word ending in "-ing" that is made from a verb and used like a noun (zelfst.nw).

We use the gerund (verb-ing):

1. After certain verbs (for example 'enjoy').

2. Instead of a noun

3. After prepositions

1) AFTER CERTAIN VERBS 

• I enjoy reading.

Here are more words that take the gerund:

like, love, stop, fancy, discuss, dislike, finish, mind, suggest, recommend, keep, avoid

He loves eating chocolate bisuits.

I fancy seeing a film tonight.

We discussed going on holiday together. I dislike waiting for buses.

We finished preparing for the meeting.

I don’t mind coming early.

2) INSTEAD OF A NOUN

• Smoking isn’t allowed here.

• Swimming is very good exercise.

3) AFTER PREPOSITIIONS

• I drank a cup of coffee before leaving.

• It's a good idea to brush your teeth after eating. 

*We also use the gerund after the preposition in phrasal verbs:

• I gave up smoking.
