What are Verbals?
Verbals are not verbs, but they are formed from verbs and, therefore, carry the idea of action. They resemble verbs in some ways, but they also resemble other parts of speech.
There are three kinds of verbals:
- Participles (used as adjectives)
- Gerunds (used as nouns)
- Infinitives (used as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs)
