I posted this question earlier without logging in. This is a re-post of it. Sorry about the error. Thank you.
Began? Closing?
1. He began closing the door.
Is "began" an auxiliary verb in the sentence? And, what about "closing"? Is it a participle modifying "he," a gerund functioning as the direct object, or the main verb?
Thank you very much.
