Dear colleagues,
 
 
I need your help. Can you say:
 
basic surviving skills and use surviving instead of survival?
 
It seems OK to me but I need to be sure.
 
 
Thank you for your answers.

No, "surviving" is incorrect.  "Survival" is correct in front of the word "skills".

I agree with Zoe. You need �survival�.

Students use the -ing forms whenever they don�t know the right noun ;))
Thank you.

Saying surviving skills means by definition skills that are surviving. So survival is the correct one
