Verbs in the beginning of phrases?
I have many doubts when using verbs in the beginning of a phrase.
For example, when enumerating tasks. Which are the correct sentences?
1. Watching a movie. / To stay at home / Stay at home.
2. Formatting a disk. / To format a disk. / Format a disk.
3. Staying at home. / To stay at home. / Stay at home.
4. Walking around. / To walk around. / Walk around.
I would be very glad if someone explained the different of meanings.
An explanation about the rules would be very appreciated.
Thank you all!
