Introduction: Besides the eight parts of speech, there are three other parts— participles, gerunds, and infinitives—called verbals. Verbals are hybrids that don’t act as verbs in a sentence, but as other parts of speech. 1. Participles: A participle is part of verb but it can be used as an adjective too.
In English, there are three types of participles. The present participle is formed from a verb in continuous tenses to describe an action going on. e.g., He is watching TV, They are playing , I am asking you) and it can function as a verb when used in the present progressive. The past participle is formed from a verb +ed for regular verbs but or irregular verbs it is not systematic, which is used to make compound verb forms in perfect tenses to indicate completed action (e.g., She has been in London before, I have done my homework). The perfect participle is formed by adding having to the past participle: Having completed the project, I can get my PhD.
2. Gerunds: Like a present participle, a gerund is a word derived from a verb plus –ing. Unlike a participle, a gerund acts like a noun or a subject of a sentence. e.g., Running regularly will make you feel better. Studying requires most of my time during the day. Do you mind my asking you?
Gerunds phrases take a singular verb: Borrowing from banks is preferable to getting startup company.
E.g. Our son's life ambition is studying to be a doctor.
The following verbs must be followed by a gerund: avoid, give up, discuss, stop, quit, keep, enjoy, mind.
3. Infinitives: An infinitive is composed of to plus a verb (e.g., to go, to carry, to drive). Most of the time you will see infinitives used as nouns, but sometimes they crop up as adjectives or adverbs.
e.g., I want to go home! ( as a noun.) e.g., We come to bury Caesar. ( as an adverb; it tells why we came.) e.g., Harry was the first student in our class to succeed. (To succeed acts as an adjective; it describes student.)
Sometimes the first part to of an infinitive is omitted.
“Please help me solve the task” That sentence means the same as “Please help me to solve the task”
These verbs are followed by infinitives: want, need, would like, expect, appear, mean, forget, try, seem, agree. Split infinitive is to insert a word between to and the verb.
e.g., He needs to better understand the rules of grammar. He needs to understand better the rules of grammar.
