Dear children,here is a new lesson in grammar: gerund
A gerund is a verb + ing
Ex.: reading _eating
When do you use the GERUND? (ex : doing
● After verbs that express likes/dislikes : like, love, enjoy dislike, hate don't mind, can't stand ..... doing
After certain other verbs, such as : admit imagine appreciate involve avoid keep (on) consider mention delay miss deny postpone finish suggest ........ doing
After prepositions : interested in ... instead of ... good at ... before ... after ................................... doing
After certain expressions : it's no use ... it's no good ... there's no point in .............. doing

The verbs : begin/start/continue can be followed by the gerund or the infinitive with little or no change in meaning.
The verbs : stop/try/remember can also take both, but the meaning changes.
Put in the gerund :
I am interested in (read)books.
answer: reading
2-Stop (talk) I want to sleep.
3-It's no use (try)to convince him.
4-Imagine (be) a princess (live) in a great palace.
5- I don't mind(go) to the woods with you tomorrow.
Try to answer the previous short exercise and tell me if you understand gerund or not.Thank You.
