Gerunds can be used in various ways within a sentence: as subjects ("Reading helps you learn"), as objects ("She enjoys cooking"), or as complements ("His passion is painting"). This dual function allows gerunds to provide a way to discuss actions and activities in a more abstract, noun-like manner.
