i dont know what your asking
What Is the Infinitive Form of a Verb? (with Examples) The infinitive form of a verb is the verb in its basic form. It is the version of the verb which will appear in the dictionary. The infinitive form of a verb is usually preceded by to (e.g., to run, to dance, to think). The infinitive form is not always preceded by to. Look at these examples: I need to run every day. (The infinitive form with the word to is called the full infinitive or to-infinitive.) I must run every day. (After certain verbs, the to is dropped (more on this below).) I run every day. (This is not in the infinitive form. This is a finite verb, i.e., a verb functioning as the main verb.) Note: The word to is not a preposition. It is often called the sign of the infinitive.
o ok (Infinitives are used mostly as non-finite verbs. In traditional descriptions of English, the infinitive is the basic dictionary form of a verb when used non-finitely, with or without the particle to.)
