Is the word hurrying a preposition?

No, "hurrying" is not a preposition. It is a verb.

Here's why:

* Verbs describe actions or states of being. "Hurrying" describes the action of moving quickly.

* Prepositions show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another word in the sentence. They usually indicate location, time, or direction. Examples of prepositions include "on," "in," "under," "to," "from," etc.

Here's an example:

* "I am hurrying to the store."

* "Hurrying" is the verb describing the action.

* "To" is the preposition showing the direction of the action.
