English Grammar: possessive + gerund (his being, the man’s having)
Your being here on my YouTube channel is a sign that you are serious about studying grammar. Which is probably why you want to know how to construct sentences like the previous one.
This uses a combination of a possessive adjective (my, your, her, or ______’s) with a gerund. The construct acts as a normal noun subject or object in a clause, with the gerund signifying an activity, and the possessive showing who the activity “belong” to, or more simply, who is doing it.
In this video I demonstrate how to create this construct and provide several examples.
I love you singing.
I love your singing
(both are correct, but the meanings are different-- see video for details)
