harming/harmful effects

[Rain Chung]

1. The harming effects of online gaming are...
2. The harmful effects of online gaming are...
Are sentences (1) and (2) both grammatically correct? If yes, what are the differences?
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

1. Neither of them is a complete sentence. Please tell us what comes after "are", all the way up to the full stop at the end of the sentence.
2. When you do need to use an ellipsis, remember to put a space before the three dots.
3. What prompted you to ask us this question? Where did you find those fragments?
4. Don't thank us for anything in advance. Wait until someone posts a helpful response and then add the "Thanks" icon to it.

Are you claiming that "harming" is an adjective?
