What is Understanding Infinitives in English about?
The infinitive is the basic form of a verb with or without "to". The bare infinitive lacks "to", while the full infinitive includes it. The bare infinitive is used after auxiliary verbs like "do" and modals. It also follows verbs of perception and causation. The full infinitive can act as a noun, adjective, or adverb. It expresses purpose with constructions like "to verb" and "in order to verb".
