As I am a movie lover, I like watching lots of movies.

By using participle rule,we can write -1) Being a movie lover, I like watching lots of movies.

But I have seen many times this type of sentences without "comma" in the newspaper - 2) I like watching lots of movies being a movie lover.

My question is, is the number 2 correct? If it's correct,then in which rule ?

  • The text of your OP would appear to be asking a different question to the title. Certainly I like watching lots of movies has a completely different meaning to I like lots of movies.

Neither. Your use of the word "like" is redundant. Also, using the word "movie" twice in the same sentence sounds awkward. Below is my suggestion for a rewrite:

As a movie lover, I watch a lot of films.

  • please consider these sentences 1) Being homesick , I don't want to go aboard 2) I don't want to go aboard being homesick. Please tell me the difference between using comma and not using comma. Commented Jun 3, 2016 at 13:00
