What’s the difference between gerunds and gerundives?
Gerunds are verbal nouns which denote actions, whereas gerundives are verbal adjectives which indicate obligation. They both have the -nd- endings and so can be difficult to distinguish. Gerunds are always neuter and singular so will be seen with -um, -i or -o endings; gerundives will agree with whatever noun is governing them.
