Infinitives are generally made like this:

to + VERB

Sometimes they are used with out "to". Infinitives are verbs, and so they come in many forms:

1. progressive forms;
2. perfect forms;
3. passive forms; and
4. negative forms.

The infinitive is a form of the verb, usually used with "to". Sometimes an infinitive does not use "to" (that's why "to" is in brackets below). Infinitives look like this:

• (to) go;
• (to) do;
• (to) watch;
• (to) see; etc.

"Wish" means "want" or "desire". In English, we use it in four main ways:

1. to say we want things to be different—for impossible dreams;
2. to express regret and annoyance;
3. to say formally what you want to do; and
4. in some greetings.
