Sense 2 needs examples[edit]

The definition given for Sense 2 is likely to be impenetrable for anyone who is not already an expert in grammar (and thus would have no need to look up the definition!). I strongly recommend that there should be examples of using the word in a sentence, and illustrating some instances of "infinitives". The latter in English at least, and optionally other languages (as at gerund).

Possibly the scope should include bare, full and split infinitives. —DIV (1.145.112.83 12:41, 19 April 2024 (UTC))[reply]
