#See Toomai's: To elaborate, canceling is a gerund. It can be used as both a noun or a verb. ''M2K practices L-canceling // Did you see M2K L-canceling in that vid?''

::For some reason, I thought gerunds were used as verbs or ''adjectives'', but my dictionary says it's nouns. Still, I believe gerunds should only be used as a noun form if it doesn't already have a noun form (e.g. cancellation), but that's just my opinion. I guess it doesn't matter. {{s|user|Red}} ([[User talk:Red|talk]]) [[File:RedSig.png|12px|link=Special:Contributions/Red|Red]] 10:10, 22 May 2014 (EDT) | |||
