The three kinds of verbals are gerund, infinitive, and participle. Gerunds act as a noun but looks like a verb. In the sentence "Swimming is a form of exercise.", swimming is the gerund. Infinitive looks like a verb but used as an adverb, adjective, or noun. It is used together with "to". In the sentence "I don't like to eat that unless my nose is covered.", the infinitive in the sentence is "to eat". Lastly, participle looks like a verb but used as an adjective to describe a noun or pronoun. It ends with -ing, -ed, or -t. In the sentence "The crying and tired employees were sent home after the earthquake.", crying and tired are the participles
