100 Examples of Verbs in the Infinitive

The infinitive verbs They are those that are not conjugated, that is, they do not express tense, mode, or person. It is one of the three non-personal forms of the verb, together with the gerund and the participle. In this way, they transmit an action but without referring to an agent directly. For example: jump, have, sleep.

The infinitive is the grammatical form that gives the verb its name, and all the infinitives in Spanish are located, according to their ending, in one of these three groups:

Verb conjugation patterns correspond to infinitives love, fear Y leave. Thus, all regular verbs can be conjugated following the corresponding model according to their ending. On the other hand, irregular verbs are those that deviate from these schemes and present their own conjugation. For example: squeeze, err, be born.

simple and compound infinitives

Infinitive verbs have simple and compound forms. Simple infinitives are those that are made up of a single word (for example: release, advance, repress) and compounds are those that are formed with the verb “to have” followed by a participle (for example: to have run, to have listened, to have sung).

Remember: Unlike simple forms, which do not have a temporal aspect, compound infinitives place the action in the past tense. For example: I’d have to having called before coming.

Functions of the infinitives

The functions that infinitives can play in a sentence are the same as nouns. However, due to their verbal value, the infinitives can be accompanied by the modifiers of the verbs.

To keep in mind: Some infinitive verbs have been nominalized with use, which is why they acquired the value of independent nouns and are used as such. For example: East dawn it is wonderful. / The fight for him can is always ruthless.
