A gerund is a noun that we make by putting the letters ‘ing’ at the end of a verb.
For example, “speaking“, “eating”, “coming”.
In English, after a preposition we use a noun.
For example, “on the table”, “after the lesson”.
If we want to say an action after a preposition, we use the gerund – not the infinitive.
For example, we say “for buying”, “after eating” etc.
Do we use the gerund or the infinitive after a preposition?
We use the gerund after a preposition.
