What is a "verbal noun"?

A verbal noun is a noun that is derived from a verb but functions as a noun in a sentence. Verbal nouns can be formed by adding specific suffixes to the verb, such as "-ing," "-tion," or "-ment." For example, in the sentence "Running is fun," the word "running" is a verbal noun derived from the verb "run." Other examples include "information," derived from "inform," and "development," derived from "develop." Verbal nouns express actions or states related to the original verb, allowing them to convey meaning while functioning grammatically as nouns. Understanding verbal nouns is important for recognizing how verb forms can transform and contribute to sentence structure.
