      The gerund is the verb form ending in -ing which acts as a noun. The one word riposte Gerund by some self-satisfyingly smug pedant indicates an abuse in its usage. It often muddies the intended meaning, and makes one want to lamp the complainant.

              Gerund are real and they are derived from [verbs] but function as nouns(I know, impossible, right). However, gerunds are actually [upside down]. This is because the earth is a [cylinder] and gerunds are from Australia, the bottom of the cylinder, therefore making the, upside down.
