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.

L’as du ski
Tout est blanc. Aucun bruit. Il a neigé cette nuit. Quelle joie ! Lapin Blanc et ses amis vont faire du ski. Ils glissent vite, vite et patatras ! Tombent dans la neige.
Ils recommencent. C’est très amusant ! Cochon Rose veut en faire autant.
Il s’élance... et s’enfonce jusqu’aux yeux.
- C’est froid, aidez-moi !
Les lapins le tirent, Cochon Rose est lourd, c'est difficile ! Enfin le voilà !
Il est tout blanc ! On dirait un bonhomme de neige. Seules ses deux petites oreilles dépassent.
- Je n’aime pas l’hiver, dit Cochon Rose. Je rentre chez moi attendre le printemps !

Dear James,

As you know, we have been working on the new perfume that we are launching in April and we are unsure about some of the packaging details. We have seen some of your creative work in the sales department and we think you have a very good eye for detail.

Do you have some time before close of business this Friday to sit down with us and talk through some of our designs? We would truly appreciate your advice on this. It shouldn't take longer than two hours of your time and we would be happy to clear it with Patricia, your department head, if necessary.

Best regards,
Sarah Ford
Head of Department
