OP These days we don't put it an a scrapbook; we say, I'm really into scrapbooking. Poof, from the ether, a gerund is born. Busy business people are calendaring appointments. Voila! A new piece of paper becomes an action verb!
But is there a word for making words into gerunds? I hereby proposed a new word. Gerunding! Think it'll make Oxford's next edition?
