What is another word for infinitives?
Pronunciation: [ɪnfˈɪnɪtˌɪvz] (IPA) 
Infinitives are non-finite verb forms that typically begin with "to". There are several synonyms for the word "infinitive" that can be used to convey the same basic meaning. For example, "base form" refers to the most basic form of a verb, which often appears with "to" in an infinitive construction. "Bare infinitive" describes a form of the verb that lacks the "to" marker, as in "I saw him go." "Unmarked infinitive" is another term that refers to the bare form of a verb. In some linguistic traditions, "gerund" is also considered a type of infinitive form, though it functions more as a noun than a verb.
