Words worth using

1, some grammarians think that worth is an adjective, but in fact worth is more of a grammatical feature of prepositions, which can dominate noun phrases, gerunds with logical subjects and wh- clauses, but not with active infinitives.

2.worth is often used for something? Is it worth it? In the v -ing structure, the gerund phrase expresses the passive meaning here. Something in this structure can sometimes be replaced by it when it is the formal subject and the gerund phrase is the real subject.
