Verbals Verbs playing dress-up!

Once upon a time, there was a verb named Swim! Hi! My name is “Swim”.

AV I swim. “Swim” in this sentence is an action verb, showing the action of the subject “I”. Most of the time, Swim’s job was to be the verb of the sentence…..

Being a verb all the time can be boring…… So, sometimes verbs play “dress-up” and pretend to be other parts of speech. I want to be a noun…….

Subject LV Swimming is fun. Subject LV Swimming is fun. In this sentence, Swim is not the verb. Swim is the subject of the sentence. Boo! I am a NOUN!

When a verb pretends to be a noun, it becomes a GERUND. Gerunds – verbs that act as nouns in a sentence. Gerunds will always end with “-ing” Subject LV Swimming is fun.

Gerunds, since they are nouns, can be in any part of sentence that a noun would normally be found.

Subject Swimming is fun. Direct Object I love swimming. Predicate Noun His true passion is swimming. Appositive His sport, swimming, is cool. Subject Swimming is fun. Direct Object I love swimming. Predicate Noun His true passion is swimming. Appositive His sport, swimming, is cool.

Object of a preposition After swimming, I went home. Appositive His sport, swimming, is cool. Object of a preposition After swimming, I went home. Appositive His sport, swimming, is cool.

Being a noun can be boring too…… So, sometimes “Swim” likes to dress up as something else. Now, I want to be an adjective…….

V ADJ OOP I went to the swimming pool. V ADJ OOP I went to the swimming pool. In this sentence, “swim” is not the verb, and it is not a noun. Blah, I am an adjective now! Blah!

When a verb pretends to be an adjective, it is a PARTICIPLE. Participles – verbs that act as adjectives in a sentence. Participles end with “-ing” or “-ed” (past tense) V ADJ OOP I went to the swimming pool.

PARTICIPLES, since they are adjectives can be in any part of a sentence where an adjective would usually be found, modifying a noun. I want to modify your noun! Blah!

Swimming to the shore, the campers finished their exercise. Swimming to the shore, the campers finished their exercise. As a participial phrase, introductory clause I modify the noun “campers”

verb adj (participle) My sister took swimming lessons over the summer. verb adj (participle) My sister took swimming lessons over the summer. As a adjective I modify the noun “lessons”

Participles can also be in “–ed” form adj (participle) adj (participle) John loves heated pools. adj (participle) Confused, Swim decided to dress up as something else. Swim needs help to do this part, so his friends Heat and Confuse will demonstrate! Verb form: heat Verb form: confuse Thanks, guys!

Being an adjective can be boring too…… So, sometimes “Swim” likes to dress up as something else. Now, I want a friend…..

V infinitive phrase I like to swim. V infinitive phrase I like to swim. When Swim joins his buddy “To”, they form a verbal called an INFINITIVE. “To” and I are BFF’s!

INFINITIVES can be found anywhere in a sentence, as nouns, adjectives or adverbs. And To and Swim will always be found together. Noun (Subject) Noun (Subject) To swim is my favorite pastime. Noun (DO) Noun (DO) I decided to swim after school. Noun (PN) Noun (PN) I am to swim after school. Noun (OOP) Noun (OOP) I was about to swim my laps. Noun (Appositive) Noun (Appositive) Our plan to swim fifty laps was halted by the coach.

INFINITIVES can also be adjectives adj adj She is the girl to swim tomorrow. We modify which girl is the one

INFINITIVES can also be adverbs adv adv They went to swim in the ocean. We modify where they went

Sometimes To has to go home… TO To! Come home to eat dinner! Hey, Swim, I’ll be back. Save my spot! Ok.

Even though Swim is alone, To’s place is still there, so he is still an INFINITIVE.

BE CAREFUL! To sometimes pretends to be a preposition……. Inf (DO) Inf (DO) I went to swim. (prep) (prep) I went to the swimming pool. In disguise!

So, what is a verbal?! A verbal is a word that is formed from a verb. Although they act like verbs in many ways – showing action, having modifiers, taking compliments – they are not used as verbs in the sentence. Instead they are used as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs.
