Verbs don't describe nouns. (cheetah is a noun). Verbs show actions or states.

Adjectives describe nouns, eg

fast cheetah

The present participle of a verb (the -ing word) is also an adjective or a gerund. Although the word form is the same, a gerund is a noun form, a word for a thing; an adjective is a word that describes a noun (tiger is a noun). Some examples of -ing adjectives that describe a tiger:

  • stalking
  • running
  • resting
  • sleeping
  • hunting
  • chasing
