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". Zoe Morosini |

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 |
