-기 vs -는 것
Not sure if this has been asked before but what's the difference between changing verbs to noun using -기 and -는 것? Examples that show their differences/similarities would be nice. (:
Thanks in advance!

I think -는 것 is the more and generally used than -기.
-기 is mostly awkward except it's used as a word like 읽기, 쓰기, 곱하기....
But it is not easy to explain clearly.
for examples,
이제야 내가 실수했다는 것을 알았어요.
한국어를 배우는 것은 어려워요.
가을은 등산하기 좋은 계절이에요.
그 사람이 오기만을 기다려요.
