Congratulations you're an excellent grammar teacher!

Good video. Thanks. To recap what you explained, there's an even easier rule that brings all these verbs together, making it clear when the -ing form is to be used after "to": when a direct object can follow "to" so the -ING form is to be used.

The simple trick to using gerund after verb is very easy. First to identify before to which is coming is Acton verb or non-action verb if it is Acton verb need to use just to + verb first form(to+verb) and vice-versa if non-action verb use to+gerund as like, admit, freak, long, crave and many more though those like learn,think, seem,know these words seem non action verb but they take to +verb first from when we get to need to strain on our brain example - I learn to speak English language. I hope , this would be useful and would make you sence of how to utilise verb in your writing and conversation.

@guilhermebrito8326 7 ай бұрын

9:03 you said "In fact, another really, really common mistake is knowing...". Why did you use "knowing" not "to know"? That's something I've always wondered, when to use infinitive and gerund after the verb to be. Could you make a lesson about it?

thank you, this lesson was definitely mind-opening to me. I have a question: does "agree to" follow the same rule? (e.g.: "We all agreed to going to the theatre?")

Please enlighen me.."The politicians are strongly opposed to the change" i assume this is an independent clause...my question is..why do you use 2 verbs (are and opposed to) in 1 independent clause?... isnt it violate the rules of grammar?..from what i've known,in one clause you can only used 1 subject and 1 verb

So there's a mistake if i say I went to school and i didn't make it to passing the exam?

@jesusargudin3231 8 ай бұрын

It just depends on what you mean … e.g I went to school…( to ) is a preposition .. I had an exam and I didn’t make it ( meaning that you didn’t pass the exam) When ( to ) is a preposition , either a noun or a gerund comes next e.g I look forward to the party… I look forward to seeing you later.. ( to ) infinitive e.g Children need ( to ) be supervised by adults
