Hello guys, in this lesson we speak about the misuse of the infinitive and this is part one. So do not forget to forecast and understand the mistakes that many English on foreign students make when they speak English or write in English. Use the neurons not the infinitive after prepositions or preposition phrases. Okay, keep this in your mind. For example, without commas with IMG, without. So don't say do work without to speak.
This is wrong, say, do work without speaking. do work without speaking. So after without the verb comes with IMG. Number two is insert of IMG. So instead of after IMG, actually after, instead of there Comes with IMG Do not forget this point. So don't say he went away and said to wait, say he went away instead of waiting.
Instead of verb IMG and we use urine afterwards which regularly take a preposition This is another important point. For example capable of the verb comes with it here. So don't say they're quite capable to do that, this is wrong. say they are quite capable of doing that. So capable comes with the verb IMG and does not also incapable of in capable of incapable outcomes with two and the infinitive follows able or unable for example, he is unable to do anything he is unable to do. Anything succeeds in also comes with the verb IMG for example, don't say power law succeeded to win the prize This is wrong.
Say power loss succeeded in winning the prize. This is a correct way. So the preposition in comes with the word succeed. Don't forget this point. We use Durand afterwards which regularly take preposition. For example fond of fond of, so don't say she's always fond to talk No, no say she's always fond of talking.
So after fond of the verb comes with IMG Don't forget this port. Insist on insist on the verb comes with AMG again, so don't say Simon insisted to go to London. No, say Sunday. insisted on going to London so insist on BB IMG and object to object to Don't say I object to be treated like this say I object to being treated like this I object to being treated like this number eight prevent from verb IMG don't say there rain prevented me to go now you should say the rain prevented me from going to prevent somebody from very IMG a very important point and a very common mistake
