Identify the non-finite verb forms in this sentence: 1. She was looking for her sister.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Looking (#1)

Explanation:

Non-finite Verb

  • Non-finite verbs function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs or combine with a finite verb for verb tense.
  • Non-finite verbs Include participles, Infinitives, gerunds, other verbs that don't change form when the subject changes.

Participle

  • A verbal that is used as an adjective, describes a noun or pronoun, present participles always end in -ing, past participles usually end in -ed.

Gerund

  • verb form acting as a noun - always ends in -ing.

Infinitive

  • a verb form that is used as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb and is typically preceded by the word to.

Continuation:

Word: She (Pronoun)

  • She is a pronoun. It's a noun that refers to another noun or noun phrase anaphorically, although it can't be preceded by a determiner and seldom accepts an attributive adjective. In English, examples are I, you, he, who, me, mine, and so on. It can also be used as a subjective or nominative pronoun. It is most commonly used to begin a statement. It is, however, rarely used as a noun.

Word: Was (Linking Verb)

  • The word "was" is a verb, more precisely a linking verb, since it connects the subject to the section of the sentence that offers further information about the topic. Furthermore, this form of the verb "to be" represents a state of being.

Word: Looking (Present Participle)

  • Looking is the present participle of look. A participle is a verb that ends in -ing (present) or -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, or -ne (past) and serves as an adjective, modifying a noun or pronoun. A participial phrase is made up of a participle and one or more modifiers, objects, and/or complements (s).

Word: For (Preposition)

  • When used to signify the usage of something, the place where an object or person is going, or the period of time, the word "for" is defined as a preposition.

Word: Her (Pronoun)

  • Her is a pronoun in the third person singular. Her is the subject or object of a verb or a preposition. Her is a possessive determiner as well. You refer to a lady, a girl, or a feminine animal with her.

Word: Sister (Noun)

  • This word is referring to someone's/something's female sibling. This word is a noun because a word that is a person, place, or thing is classified as this part of speech. The noun sister can be used as either a proper or common noun.
  • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. After looking through this sentence, we can come to one conclusion. Since looking ends in -ing, it is classified as a gerund. Therefore, the word <u><em>looking</em></u> is a non-finite verb.
  • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the other words in the sentence are not considered or classified as non-finite verb as their word classifications do not match those of the description/definition given of what a non-finite verb is.

  • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

She was <u>looking</u> for her sister.

  • NOTE:  Verbs with tense are finite, and verbs without tense are nonfinite.

Which one is grammatically correct?
kherson [118]

Answer:

The correct answer is: I had a much better understanding of how they worked.

Explanation:

The correct answer is the second one, due to the verb tense consistency.

Verb tense consistency refers to keeping the same tense throughout a clause. If you use a past tense in a sentence, you must finish it in the same manner. When you use a certain tense you must be consistent throughout the sentence.

For example:  

We <u>watched </u>the movie, and then we <u>went </u>to dinner.

2. The Bicycle Empowerment Network (BEN) is an organisation
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The article stated that Andrew Wheeldon is aptly named because of the irony in his organization about bicycles and his love for peddling, all concerning 'wheels'.

Explanation:

According to the dictionary, the word "aptly" is defined as any action done in <em>"a manner that is appropriate or suitable in the circumstance"</em>. This means that it is used to talk of things that are appropriate and clever for the circumstance.

Now, the passage talks of the Bicycle Empowerment Network (BEN) and how it was started by a man named "Andrew Wheeldon". So, looking at his name and the word "wheel", it is quite clever or even hilarious that the BEN is founded by a guy whose name has the word "wheel" on it, and also loves peddling too. So, one can say, in jest, that he was the right man to start the organization. He is suited for the job.
