GERUND, INFINITIVE AND
PARTICIPLE
Gerund, Infinitive and Participle are three
types of verbs. The non-finite verb is classified as Gerund, Infinitive and
Participle. Students often find it easy to understand the basic definition of a
Verb. However, exams like Banking and Insurance Exams like IBPS,
PO, CLERK, SO, SSC, CDS, RRB and Defence Exams require a deeper
understanding of the verb. But before we start exploring Gerund, Infinitive and
Participle. Let us go through the basics of the verb. The verb is a grammatical
structure that conveys the action of a subject, a state of being, and an
occurrence. Verbs are used in different structural forms in a sentence. A verb,
generally, is divided into two types, on the basis of the structure.
Example:
- The
ministers boast to win the votes.
- The
ministers boast for winning the votes.
- Let winning be
a habit.
- Let them win.
