§Grammar and usage

In addition to + noun or -ing ('In addition to teaching, she writes books').

'In addition to' के बाद noun या -ing form आता है, जैसे 'In addition to teaching, she writes books' (पढ़ाने के अलावा वह किताबें भी लिखती है)। यहाँ 'to' preposition है, इसलिए verb नहीं बल्कि -ing रूप लगता है।
