  • The noun names the action or result.
  • This form is often used in formal writing.

  • A noun can become a verb.
  • The action is expressed more directly.
  • This often makes the sentence sound more active.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any change in a sentence that keeps the same meaning must be a substitution of one part of speech for another.
