The gerund and present participle of a verb are the form ending in -ing: forgiving, leaving, coming, and so on.

There are past participles as well as present participles. Gerunds relate only to present participles.

Gerunds are used as nouns:

WALKING is enjoyable.

Present participles are used as adjectives:

I have been WALKING for four hours.

Gerunds cannot be used with an auxiliary verb.

That’s not five differences, but it’s all I can think of.
