This document discusses the uses of infinitives, gerunds, and bare infinitives in English. 1. Gerunds are used as nouns or after prepositions. They also follow certain verbs and idiomatic expressions. 2. To-infinitives are used to indicate purpose, after modal verbs and verbs like "want" and "help", and in certain constructions. 3. The bare infinitive is used after modal verbs except "have to" and in expressions like "let me go" or "would rather". Some verbs like "see" can be followed by a gerund or bare infinitive.
