What Is a Gerund Phrase?

A gerund is a verb form that ends in -ing. A gerund phrase includes the gerund, plus any modifiers and complements. Gerunds and gerund phrases always function as nouns. They can act as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, predicate nominatives, or objects of a preposition in a sentence.

Gerund phrases:

1.As the subject of sentence

Being a flight attendant sounds exciting.

2.As the object of a sentence

He'd love being a flight attendant

3.As the object of a preposition

I'm interested in being a flight attendant

TIP

To determine whether a word or phrase is functioning as a gerund versus a present participle, try replacing it with the word something. If something works in the sentence, then the word or phrase is a gerund.
