How is the infinitive phrase used in this sentence? These origami birds are fun to make for decorations. A. noun as subject B. adjective C. adverb D. noun as direct object
@Englishguy
D or C. I'm leaning on C though...
adverb: explains WHY noun as direct object: direct reference via ANOTHER verb.
So it's D then.
oh also for noun: it is the subject of the sentence. yes ☺
But the Direct Object isn't Origami Birds? :/
Looking at the same thing. http://www.chompchomp.com/terms/infinitivephrase.htm What elaborates on origami birds. I suppose the phrase is: fun to make for decorations.
• Lakesha hopes to win the approval of her mother by switching her major from fine arts to pre-med. >> "To win the approval of her mother" functions as a noun because it is the direct object for the verb hopes.
Ohhhhhhhh!!! I kind of get it now. Thanks! :)
<to make for decorations> "are fun"
