This grammar glossary will help.

P.S. It would help if you began using correct words in your question! A "wat" is an eastern temple. "What" is an interrogative.

gerund: a noun formed by the present participle of a verb,
such as "reading" in the sentence "He enjoys
reading", or "Reading is my favorite subject."
participle : the form of a verb,usually ending in "-ing" or "-ed"
that is used in compounds to make verb tenses,
or as an adejctive or gerund
example: "I have studied the questions"
("studied" is participle)
active voice:when the subject of a verb is represented as
acting. "The sun attracts the earth."
"The girls is bouncing the ball"
passive voice: the subject of the verb is represented as
acted upon. "The boy was punished by his
father" (to make this sentence ACTIVE,
you would say "The father punished the boy")
