3.06 - What Are Your Hobbies?


By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
• use gerunds to talk about hobbies.
• learn the difference between a gerund and the
present continuous tense.

Back to Index
3.06 - Warm-up

sewing hiking cooking shopping gardening dancing drawing swimming


3.06 - Let’s Learn
Sometimes, a noun is created in English by using the form verb + -ing. This is called a
gerund.

You can talk about your hobbies using gerunds.

Example:

Sewing is fun.
Cooking is relaxing.
Shopping is exciting!

What are your hobbies?


3.06 - Let’s Learn
What is the difference between these two sentences?

Swimming is fun! I am swimming.

Be careful not to confuse a gerund with the continuous tenses.

Remember, the continuous tenses use the form:


to be + present participle

Example:

I am cooking.
I was gardening.

Review:
How are gerunds and present participles different? Remember!
The present participle
is formed:
verb + ing
3.06 - Let’s Practice
Gerund or present participle?

3.07 - Let’s Learn
To talk about a possibility, English uses the verb modals may and might.

They can normally be interchanged without a significant change in meaning. However,


might often implies a smaller chance of something happening.

Use may and might when there is a chance that something is true or there is a possibility
or potential of something happening.

Example:
I might go to the beach this summer.
I may go on a vacation this summer.
3.07 - Let’s Practice
Use the modals may and might to tell your teacher about your potential plans this
summer. Use the structure: may/might + verb

I might ________________________ this summer.

I may _________________________ this summer.


3.07 - Let’s Learn
To show how certain we are about something, English uses the adverbs probably,
possibly, and perhaps.

Adverb When to use Example

happen or to be true.
possibly Something might happen, I will go to my grandmother’s house possibly.
but you are not certain.
perhaps Something might happen, Perhaps I will take a road trip alone next year.
but you are less certain.

Adverbs can be placed anywhere in a sentence.


• At the front of a sentence before the subject.
• At the center of a sentence, between the subject and the verb, or after the first auxiliary verb.
• At the end of the sentence.
