Which bolded word or phrase is a gerund?

1 answer:

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.

Which language techniques could you use to make a blog more effective and why

Answer: Picking the Perfect Topic

Explanation:

Knowing what to write about is the most difficult part about blogging. Based on your business, industry, and your overall purpose of blogging (which you should set goals for), you probably have hundreds of half-ideas on what to blog about. Before you start typing, however, come to terms with the fact that there are thousands of other blogs already out there trying to do the same thing. What sets them apart? Well, that answer is easy:

Popular, effective blogs tap into trending events, pop culture, and news. You can do this by checking out competition and staying up to date on your industry.

These blogs inform rather than promote. People have a take-away, observe a call-to-action, and potentially share/like a blog because they think others will enjoy it.

On top of being informative, successful blogs are entertaining. Forgo the tight language and traditional three sentence, grad school essay structure.

Successful blogs also have a long lifespan.
