Lisa's Podcast

Give a tongue twister a twirl!

guó pò shān hé zài ，chéng chūn cǎo mù shēn 。
国破山河在，城春草木深。
gǎn shí huā jiàn lèi ，hèn bié niǎo jīng xīn 。
感时花溅泪，恨别鸟惊心。
fēng huǒ lián sān yuè ，jiā shū dǐ wàn jīn 。
烽火连三月，家书抵万金。
bái tóu sāo gèng duǎn ，hún yù bú shèng zān 。
白头搔更短，浑欲不胜簪。

Students regularly ask me, "How do I know what comes after a verb?" If a verb takes another verb as a complement, it is usually either a full infinitive or a gerund (e.g., "to do" or "doing").  Bare infinitives (e.g., "do") can only be complements for a small number of verbs, but these verbs are very common.  In this article, I take a look at some verbs that take bare infinitives as complements.
