A Verbal is a word formed from a verb but functioning as a different part of speech Forms of a verb ending in –ing are called gerund. Example: John is working on a major project for work.

4 To show past tense, most verbs have –ed or –d which are added to the base form. Ex:(talked, walked, jumped) Example: Bryan had yelled so loud, that the neighbors heard it.

Ex:( to swim, to think, to be) Example: Kenya was suppose to go camping but when out with friends instead
