Presentation 3
Distinguish the infinitive and -ing form
The base form of a verb often functions as an
infinitive. It is called the bare infinitive because it is
used without to. We must distinguish it from the toinfinitive, where to is always used in front of the
base form of the verb. The -ing form of a verb
sometimes functions as a gerund (a kind of noun)
and sometimes as a present participle. Many verbs
and adjectives, and some nouns, can be followed by
one of these forms, and in some cases by more than
one form. From the student’s point of view, the
problem is knowing which form is appropriate. This
may be because only one form is grammatically
correct, e.g: enjoy doing or fail to do. Or it may be
because only one form suits what we want to say,
e.g: remember to do or remember doing.
The following list are the verbs which can only

followed by to-infinitive and -ing:
The verbs can only be followed by to-infinitive:
agree
refuse
manage
fail
decide
plan
hope
expect
seem
tend

48

Whole class


The verbs can only be followed by -ing form:
enjoy
avoid
mind
consider
practice
miss
postpone
risk
The to-infinitive and -ing never mean the same when
we use after these verbs: remember, forget, try, and
stop.

Remember + to-infinitive refers to an action in the
future (or to a “future” action as seen from the past.):
Remember to post the letters. (= don’t forget to)
I remembered to post the letters. (= I didn’t forget to)
Remember + -ing refers to the past:
I remember posing the letters.
(= I posted them and I remember the action)
Forget + to-infinitive refers to future actions (or to a
future action as seen from the past):
Don’t forget to ask Tom. I forgot to ask Tom.
Forget + -ing refers to the past:
Have you forgotten meeting her?
Regret + to-infinitive refers to future or present:
We regret to inform you that you failed in the exam.
Regret + -ing refers to present or past:
I regret buying so many newspapers.
Try + to-infinitive means “make an effort”:
You should try to get high marks in the final exam.
Trying + -ing means “experiment”:
49


Try learning French and you will find it interesting.
Stop + to-infinitive refers to a purpose
On the way to school, I stopped to buy a newspaper.
Stop + -ing: -ing is the object of the verb:
We couldn’t stop laughing because of his funny story.
