Answer:

gerund

Explanation:

The thief confessed to <em>stealing </em>the camera from the display. The italiced word is a <em>gerund </em>because it functions as a noun. <em>Stealing i</em>s the object to the preppsition <em>to </em>and a preposition is always followed by a <em>gerung</em> . If the thief confessed to stealing the camera, in fact, this is what is meant: The thief confessed to someone <em>that he had stolen the camera</em>. The italiced clause can be nominalised through a<em> gerund</em> preceded by a preposition as the one in the original sentence.

Have you ever looked at someone and just felt like you were being pulled in? Like you both have a special connection, even though you've never really met? Known as love at first sight, this is the plot of the play "Romeo and Juliet". In the play a girl named Juliet and a boy named Romeo fall in love at first sight, however their parents forbade their love. They knew that they were meant to be, however, and defied their parents. Though the story doesen't end very well you can see the message of love at first sight.

Hope this helps ^w^
