In English, if you want to follow a verb with another action, you must use a gerund or infinitive. For example:
  • We resumed talking. (gerund – verb + ing)
  • I want to see a movie. (infinitive – to + base verb)
There are certain verbs that can only be followed by one or the other, and these verbs must be memorized. Many of these verbs are listed HERE.
You can also practise by doing some ONLINE EXERCISES.
