Feb 14, 2015 · Feb 14, 2015. #1. With respect to IF-clause rules, I used to know that the modal verb "would" had to be paired with simple past: i f + simple past + would + infinite.

Jan 14, 2013 · Brittany, NW France. English (Midlands UK) Jan 14, 2013. #2. The -ing form is correct in your context.

Mar 22, 2013 · Canada. Mar 22, 2013. #1. In the American movie "The Perks of Being a Wallflower", the main protagonist exhorts "I feel infinite" and later "We are infinite". The French movie title is "le monde de Charlie". My interpretation is the quote symbolizes a moment we feel limitless, a moment that we never want to end.
在故事情节上把前两作和infinite比是不合适的，infinite的故事和世界观已经高于rapture了，之间没有优劣，就是等级的差距，虽然我个人还是比较喜欢一代，但是infinite的故事也许远比表面上复杂，这就要提到其中一对贯穿游戏始末的角色了，我称他们为outsiders，独立与现实世界，存在于过去和未来的科学的产物。
Mar 5, 2011 · Spanish (Spain) Mar 5, 2011. #1. Hello to everybody: I would like to know which structure is right: imply + infinitive or imply + gerund. More specifically, I'm trying to guess how to write properly the sentence: Deriving the solution of this problem imply solving/to solve the previous equation. Thanks a lot.
Nov 25, 2021 · Nick and his other criminal connections only know what Billy thinks of as his “dumb self,” a guy who’s a talented sniper but otherwise not very sharp. He’s cultivated that dumb self carefully, all the while indulging his voracious reading habit. In front of Nick and his goons, Billy reads Archie’s Pals ‘n’ Gals, but when he’s on ...
