The following terms apply: UNNECESSARY, NON ESSENTIAL AND NON RESTRICTIVE.
These three terms are used interchangeably to describe a particular clause or phrase in a sentence.
A clause or phrase is said to be non essential if its removal from the sentence does not affect the main idea or the meaning of the sentence. A sentence will still retains its meaning if a non essential phrase or clause is remove from it. For example, look at this sentence: Faith, who always comes first in her class, is a very intelligent girl. The non essential phrase in the sentence is 'who always comes first'. If this phrase is removed from the sentence, the sentence will still retain its original meaning and the sentence will now read like this: 'Faith is a very intelligent girl'.

Which bolded word or phrase is a gerund?
Paha777 [63]

Okay so gerunds are a form that is derived from a verb but that functions as a noun, in English ending in -ing, example would be like asking in 'do you mind my asking you?'

So the first one would be 'giggling', then the second one would be 'fixing.'

the next two would be a bit harder because there are no words that have a prefix of -ing, but im not to sure about them because i dont think they have a gerund in them...

but the next ones are, 'laughing' and 'squinting'

sorry i couldnt help with all of them.
