GrammarDevelopment一般來說，作為定語修飾名詞時，動名詞用于說明它所修飾的名詞的作用和用途；現(xiàn)在分詞則表示它所修飾的名詞正在進行的動作，與該名詞在邏輯上存在主謂關(guān)系，相當(dāng)于一個定語從句，如：aswimminggirl

游泳的女孩（分詞）aswimmingpool

游泳的池子（動名詞）又如：

Thereisaswimmingpoolinourschool.(動名詞，表示用途、作用)=Thereisapoolforswimminginourschool.

Ifoundasleepingbabyonthebed.(現(xiàn)在分詞，表示正在進行的動作)=Ifoundababywhoissleepingonthebed.GerundBACKPresentparticiplesvs.LanguageinUse
