88. The Verbal Noun  المَصدَر 
==============================

The Verbal Noun  المَصدَر  is a noun that is derived from a verb.
Therefore, it acts like a noun, as in the following examples:

a. a subject                 **العَمَلُ في هذهِ الشرکةِ صَعبٌ.**

b. an object                                         **اُحِبُّ
القراءَةَ.  **

c. a first term of Idaafa      **بِناءُ المَدارس ِ شيءٌ جَيِّدٌ.**

d. a second term of Idaafe       **کِتابُ القراءَةِ جَديدٌ.  **

e. a predicate                              **هوايَتي هي الطـَّبخُ.**

A verbal noun derived from a transitive verb does sometimes act like
that verb and would take an object.
