What Can an Infinitive Do? An infinitive can serve as an adjective, noun, or adverb. To serve others is a great feeling. His ambition is to fly. Sue wanted to bake cookies. To win, the team must practice. Jack has the persistence to succeed.

Tips to Identify 1.If the infinitive begins a sentence and is followed by a verb, it is the subject: To graduate from school is the ultimate goal.

2. If the infinitive begins a sentence, is followed by a comma and a noun or noun phrase, it functions as an adverb. To win, the team must practice. 3. Whether following a verb or noun, if the infinitive ends a sentence and could be moved to the beginning of that sentence by adding a comma, it functions as an adverb. The library must fund-raise to re-open. To re-open, the library must fund-raise.

4. If the infinitive ends a sentence but can not be moved to the beginning of that sentence without adding additional words, it is functioning as either a noun or an adjective. The infinitive functions as a noun when it is preceded by a verb. If it is preceded by an action verb, it is a DO. If it is preceded by a linking verb, it is a PN. Lisa loves to bake. My goal is to climb every mountain.

The infinitive functions as an adjective when it is preceded by a noun or noun phrase. Jack has the persistence to succeed.

Gerunds Serve as Nouns  Gerunds can be a Subject, Object of the Preposition, Direct Object, or Predicate Nominative

Tips and Tricks 1.If it comes at the beginning of the sentence and leads up to the verb, it is serving as a subject: Shopping with my family is a tradition on Black Friday.

2. If it comes after a preposition, it is the object of the preposition: The police arrested him for speeding.

3. If a linking verb precedes (comes before), it is a PN: My cat's favorite activity is sleeping.

4. If an action verb precedes it, it is a DO: They do not appreciate my singing.
