Quando usar gerúndio ou infinitivo?

Gerúndio, infinitivo e particípio são formas nominais do verbo, ou seja, maneiras em que os verbos são usados sem serem conjugados (ou seja, não flexionam em tempo, nem em modo. Eles, portanto, não se alteram, são sempre escritos da mesma maneira.

O gerúndio é utilizado para indicar que uma ação está ocorrendo. Em inglês, acrescenta-se o "ing" após o verbo. Ex.:

• Work => working;
• Study => studying;
• phone => phoning (aqui retirou-se a letra "e" e acrescentou-se o "ing").

O infinitivo é usado para indicar que algo está para acontecer. Em inglês, usa-se o "to" + forma base do verbo. Ex.:

• to pick;
• to finish;
• to accept.

Quando usar um ou outro dependerá do verbo principal da oração e da palavra que vem antes. Ex.:

• Gerúndio:

1. após preposições (com exceção de "but");
2. para substituir sujeito (iniciando a frase) ou objeto em uma frase;
3. Após frases com Sujeito + verbo + pronome. Ex.: "We agree to meet them;"
4. com verbos como: enjoy, discuss, finish, keep, avoid etc. (são decorados com o uso)

• Infinitivo:

1. depois de adjetivos;
2. para indicar propósito;
3. com verbos como ask, help, want, would like, need etc. (são decorados com o uso).
