Infinitive- the basic form of a verb, without an inflection binding it to a particular subject or tense. Infinitive Phrase- An Infinitive Phrase is a group of words consisting of an infinitive and the modifier and/or (pro)noun or noun phrase that function as the actor, direct object, indirect object, or complement of the action or state expressed in the infinitive. Participle- a word formed from a verb (e.g., going, gone, being, been ) and used as an adjective (e.g., working woman, burned toast ) or a noun (e.g., good breeding ). In English, participles are also used to make compound verb forms (e.g., is going, has been ). Participle Phrase- The participial phrase is always used as an adjective phrase to modify a noun or pronoun. It includes the participle together with its modifiers, objects, or predicate words. The present participle form always ends in -ing, but the endings for past perfect and passive perfect participles may vary.
