Which bolded word or phrase is a gerund?

English
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago
5 0

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.

Talja [164]

For me the poet wants to be in a place that is near the wind and the sea and in which he can access to ancient truths and beauties. His desire is to live in the eternally changing powers with the ancient God of the seas and rivers. So, this God is always changing forms and that makes the discovery of the truth more difficult. Another God that the author invokes is Triton which is another sea God and use his powers to calm waters.
