Question

Identify the infinitive phrase and its use.

To win an argument is seldom a desirable goal

Answer 1

The English infinitive (or full infinitive, to be specific) generally exists in the form "to ____," with the verb existing in its unconjugated form.

There are two verbs in the sentence above: "win" and "is." "Win" exists in its full infinitive form; "is" is a conjugated form of the verb "be."
