非谓语动词；动词性词
A verb form that does not act as the main predicate, such as an infinitive, participle, or gerund.
In English, the infinitive 'to travel' is a verbal that can be the subject of a sentence.
在英语中，不定式“to travel”是非谓语动词，可以充当句子的主语。
不作为谓语的动词形式,或由动词派生的词。在英语中,不定式、分词和动名词是动词形式。
A verb form which does not function as a predicate, or a word derived from a verb. In English, infinitives, participles and gerunds are verbals.
Both the present participle and the gerund are verbals, but they have different uses.
现在分词和动名词都是非谓语动词，但它们的用法不同。
When I studied grammar, I learned that a verbal is formed from a verb but does not function as the main verb.
