UNIT 3 WORDS Verbs followed by infinitives. An infinitive is the verb form that has “to” at the beginning. For example, “to do,” “to sleep,” “to love” and “to create.” It is the simplest verb form that you have to modify to fit into sentences.

Gerunds are formed by adding “-ing” to the verb: “sleeping,” “drawing,” “swimming.” But they are not the “-ing” verb forms that you see in the present or past continuous tense. They look the same, but gerunds are actually verb forms used as nouns. Here are a few examples of verbs that need to be followed by a gerund: admit: They admitted changing the schedule. advise: I advise proceeding (moving forward) with caution. avoid: She avoided looking me in the eye. consider (think about): I considered staying silent, but I had to tell her. deny: I denied knowing about his secret. enjoy: Pablo enjoyed playing with his friends. finish: He finished cleaning his bedroom involve: The course involved writing three tests. mention (say something): She mentioned seeing my brother at a baseball game. recommend: I recommend practicing gerunds and infinitives. risk: Don’t risk losing your job! suggest: I suggest reading more English short stories. https://www.fluentu.com/blog/english/gerunds-and-infinitives/ https://www.liveworksheets.com/worksheets/en/English_as_a_Second_Language_(ES L)/Gerund_or_Infinitive/Verb_Patterns*_infinitives_and_gerunds_eb3167ec https://www.liveworksheets.com/worksheets/en/English_as_a_Second_Language_(ES L)/Gerund_or_Infinitive/Gerunds_and_Infinitives_hj1308050dj https://www.perfect-english-grammar.com/gerunds-and-infinitives-exercise-1.html https://www.englishpage.com/gerunds/index.htm Describing with the senses Count and Noncount nouns https://es.liveworksheets.com/worksheets/en/English_as_a_Second_Language_(ESL)/ Countable_and_uncountable_nouns/Count_and_Noncount_Nouns_lm296606yg
