What is the maker trying to do by making this video?

This is called the imperative.

It's used to:

• give advice
• make commands
• give instruction
• make a request

In short: you tell someone what they should  do

This is what it looks like

• to eat > Eat that sandwich 
• to touch > Don't touch your phone 
• to use > Don't use too much salt 
• to throw: Throw it against the wall.

You don't have to change the word! :D

place "Don't" in front of it to make it negative.

3. c
4. d

What do you notice about the following words?
Dancing- feeling - skating - turning

you use the gerund when talking about an action

you are not actually doing it.

This is what it looks like

• to sneeze > she thinks sneezing sounds annoying

It is not a gerund if you are talking about actually doing the action:

• I was smoking yesterday  X
