Infinitives Infinitives are “to + a verb”: –To –To sing go dance work play Infinitives are easily recognized because of the preposition “to” + the verb.

Infinitives There are certain verbs that cause the “to” in the infinitive to disappear: ––L––Letwatch ––S––Seehelp ––M––Makedare ––H––Hearfeel ––I––I saw him fall down the stairs. ––H––He heard his sister scream. ––L––Let me drive the car into the garage.

Infinitives –The –The preposition preposition except except causes the “to” in the infinitive to disappear also: The child did nothing nothing except except lie in the crib.

Infinitives are similar to gerunds and participles in that they can have direct objects, indirect objects, and prepositional phrases. Infinitives are different from gerunds and participles because they can have subjects.

Infinitives To isolate the infinitive phrase, begin with the infinitive first. He wants to spend this summer in Europe. She watched the child fly his kite. She saw him crawl through the mud.

Infinitives with Direct Objects Determine whether or not the infinitive phrase has a direct object by asking the question Subject + verb + whom/what? = direct object He wanted to watch the dog in the yard. The coach taught him to hit a curve ball. The student had to write a report about the famous detective.

Infinitives with Indirect Objects Infinitive + direct object + to/for whom/what = indirect object He refused to give Bill the money. – –To give what? = money Direct Object

Infinitives with Prepositional Phrases Infinitive phrases can have direct object, indirect objects and prepositional phrases. The prepositional phrase will function as an adverb or an adjective.

Infinitives with Prepositional Phrases – –He likes to watch the game on his big screen TV. – –The doctor told him to go to the hospital immediately.

Infinitives with Prepositional Phrases He wants to buy the puppy in the pet shop window. She wants to visit the museum in Williamsburg.

Summary Infinitives can have ––s––subjects ––D––Direct objects ––I––Indirect objects ––P––Predicate nominatives ––P––Prepositional phrases This powerpoint presentation was designed only to show how to isolate an infinitive or infinitive phrase.

Summary Infinitives can be used with gerunds and participles and other infinitives: The doctor’s orders to stop smoking was difficult to do. The father wanted to watch his son play football. Wishing to avoid an argument Debra left the room. He wanted to pet the dog lying on the floor.
