a simple question about english

[annamia]

hi

well, I think it's a stupid question... but I'm just wondering: you say to take - taking , to drink - drinking , to run - running and so on. but what do you say in this case: to party - ??

Partying :)

[annamia]

Partying :)

thank you very much :) couldn't find it in the dictionary so I wasn't sure about that. is it official english or more colloquial?

Is party a name?

Is party a name?

eeeh what? :D not it's not a name.. it's a verb

Party is a verb.

I am partying at a party.
Partying = verb
party = noun

I think partying is ok to use in everyday English, anyway, partying is colloquial, so I guess saying that you party, "partying" is acceptable
