Answer 1

infinitive phrase means a verb (usually) has \(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm to }\) in front,.
Like
\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm to }\) play
\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm to }\) write
\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm to }\) do homework

Or,
do\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm ing }\) homework
check\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm ing }\) the answers
rest\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm ing }\) from school

Answer 2

I am trying to say, that the verb has to be general, not referring or going on a specific pronoun like us, we them and etc.

Answer 3

For instance, when you say
visit \(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm us }\), that is not an infinitive verb.
tell \(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm us }\) is also not an infinite verb.
Tamar ... \(\normalsize\color{blue}{ \rm planning }\) is also not an infinite verb.
(the verb refers to her.

See what I mean?

Answer 5

Similar to the French language, infinitives always contain "to" in front of them, such as:
to go
to jump
to run
Or contain -ing after their present tense
JUMPing
GOing
RUNing
