VERBAL NOUN |PUSTO|

Verbal Nouns Verbal nouns are nouns derived from verbs. (Verbal nouns have no verb-like properties.) For example (verbal nouns shown in bold): • a good building • a fine drawing • an effective attack In the examples above, the verbal nouns are shown with adjectives to differentiate them from gerunds (which are often confused with verbal nouns). Gerunds are modified with adverbs not adjectives. Key Points about Verbal Nouns Verbal nouns are usually preceded by "a or an" or "the" and followed by a preposition (e.g., "of," "in," "for"). This makes them pretty inefficient from a word count perspective. Also, a sentence with verbal nouns can often sound stuffy. However, verbal nouns can give an air of formality or provide emphasis. So, we should all care about verbal nouns for two reasons: (1) Replacing verbal nouns with verbs and gerunds will reduce your word count and improve sentence flow. (2) Sentences featuring pure verbal nouns could portray you as stuffy (bad) or authoritative (good). Employ them skilfully to tune to your needs. Nominalization (Creating Nouns) Nominalization refers to the creation of a noun from verbs or adjectives. When nouns are created from other parts of speech, it is usually through the use of suffixes. For example: • "My fiancée is an actor." (The verb act becomes the noun actor.) • "His acceptance of the position was received warmly." (The verb accept becomes the noun acceptance.) • "The hardness of diamond makes it a great material for cutting tools." (The adjective hard becomes the noun hardness.) • "This project will be fraught with difficulty." (The adjective difficult becomes the noun difficulty.)
