GERUNDS AND INFINITIVE
GERUND
- The gerund, in the context of grammar, is a verbal form defined as a conjugation of the verb that demonstrates an action; but it is not defined by time, nor by mode, nor by number nor by person. In Spanish it derives from the Latin gerundium that, initially, was the ablative case of the gerundivum (participle of passive future).
- They are selling books there.
- He is need speaking to Japanese
- You are start to working very hard
- We are finished to playing soccer
- Everyone needs to play chess
- He enjoy to excelent of the party
- She keep to distance of the people
- He isn't keep traveling to Europe

INFINITIVE
- In grammar, the infinitive is a non-finite verb form that shows characteristics of a noun and lacks some of the typical features of a verb (such as the expression of categories, for example: the person, the mode, etc.). By lexicographical convention, the infinitive is in many languages (as in Spanish) the form used to enunciate a verb, and therefore the one that appears as an entry or lemma of the dictionary. Examples of infinitive in Spanish are: Wanting is power Eating and scratching everything is to start. Seeing is believing However, the infinitive does not always present all these characteristics in a particular language. There are languages without a strict infinitive, like modern Greek, which use different strategies to place a verb in a substantive sentence.
- She plan to see him in the park
- She expect to leave at 12 o'clock.
- They are went there to learn German
- They want to buy noodle soup.
- We plan to eat at home of a friend
- I am plan to get a good mark.
- I would like to dance with you.
- I want to call her for a date
