Forms of gerund. Формы герундия

 Формы герундия

Ге­рун­дий имеет формы, вы­ра­жа­ю­щие залог и ха­рак­тер дей­ствия.

The Simple (Present) Gerund ис­поль­зу­ет­ся, когда мы го­во­рим о на­сто­я­щем или бу­ду­щем.

При­мер:

I like swimming.

Reading broadens your mind.

The Perfect Gerund ука­зы­ва­ет на то, что дей­ствие, вы­ра­жен­ное ге­рун­ди­ем, про­изо­шло рань­ше, чем дей­ствие, вы­ра­жен­ное ос­нов­ным гла­го­лом.

При­мер:

He denied having broken the window.

Passive Gerund также бы­ва­ет Simple (Present) и Perfect, но форму Simple можно ис­поль­зо­вать вме­сто формы Perfect без раз­ни­цы в зна­че­нии.

При­мер:

She hates having been lied to./She hates being lied to.

И все же ино­гда раз­ни­ца важна.

При­мер:

He reluctantly admitted to having been imprisoned.
