Hi this is from the manhattan SC book. I came across these while studying and am having some trouble to infer what exactly this means. Please help
Any –ing word functioning as part of the verb form will have another verb
immediately before it, as in the is playing example. If no prior verb exists, then
the –ing word is not acting as a verb.
Any -ing words that are not verbs and not separated from the rest of the
sentence by a comma will either be a noun, as in Playing soccer is fun, or
modify another noun, as in The girl playing soccer is my sister.
