Hi Polona,
The gerund is sometimes called a verbal noun because it's like a verb and a noun. Here is an example:
Swimming is good for you.
The past participle is one of the main parts of a verb:
I want to believe (infinitive) you.
He believes (Present Simple)you.
He believed (Past Simple) you.
He has believed (past participle) you.
