Is it correct to say "I love to eat pizza"?
Hi everybody!
I have a doubt with verb patterns. I know that some verbs are gerunds and others are full infinitive.
My question is with the verbs love o like. Is it possible to use with -ing and full infinitive.
For example:
I like/love eating pizza.
or
I like/love to eat pizza.

Yes,
These are all correct:
I love eating pizza.
I love to eat pizza.
I like eating pizza.
I like to eat pizza.
However, in conversation most people would just say "I love pizza", or "I like pizza". The verb "to eat" is assumed!

I think if you want to make a detailed phrase you would use " I like/love to eat pizza.".
Ex: I like to eat pizza with my friends .
And if you want to make a more general phrase you would use " I like/love eating"
Ex: I like/love eating and cooking.
Anyway both forms are OK.
