Hi Guru Ashish! My best wishes is a very Happy New Year 2020 to you, too. I truly appreciate the video lesson about Active and Passive Infinitive. It is really helpful and useful. The explanations and the given examples are perfect and excellent. It is very easy to understand. On a whole, it is a well prepared lesson. Hats off to you! Today`s task answers are as follows: 1. to be 2. to have taken 3. to retire 4. to have been enjoying. By the way, I have some problem regarding the Compound Gerund forms. I got through the grammarian`s book, Wren & Martin, it gave only 4 sentences as an explanation: 1. I heard of his having gained a prize. 2. We were fatigued on account of having walked so far. 3. They were charged with having sheltered anarchists. 4. He is desirous of being praised. Would you kindly please make a lesson on this topic. I believe in you. Thanking you for keeping me posted. Best Regards, Fazil

Hi,. "I want to purchase a car". in this "to purchase a car" is object of verb. In this "to purchase" is simple infinitive acting as noun. "a car" is noun phrase . Is my understanding correct? together "to purchase a car" is acting as compound noun? or we would say it's a prepositional phrase? because it's start with preposition "to".

But look at this line "People living in cold climates enjoy to be engaged in an agreeable struggle that is not very challenging" To be engaged as object of verb work kar kar hai . Par mujy smj nai a rai ky people (subject) yaha py kesy action recieve kar rahy hain kon unko engaged kar raha hai if people is recieving action but from whom .

Sir I have this kind of problem.If we say "he wants to go" .of course" to go" acts as a noun .then my question , does TO GO act as the object of the said sentence? Then if we say " I want to buy a car for my sister , what is the object of the sentence . Is it TO BUY A CAR.?
@EnglishWithAshish
@EnglishWithAshish 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, "to buy a car" is the direct object of the verb "Wants."

Sir! If i say that- 1).He pretended to be studying so it means that he was studying in the past but he pretended. 2) millitants were suspected to be running so does it sound like they were running but they were suspected. I will be thankful to you if you correct me.

So i am asking that- He pretended to be studying means he was studying but he pretended. at the time of speaking and 2nd one (2) militants were suspected to be running means they were running but they were suspected.
