動名詞與不定詞
(1) 動詞後可用動名詞與不定詞者
*動詞後可用動名詞與不定詞做為受詞者諸如:
like 喜歡 begin 開始 dislike 不喜歡 commence 開始
love 喜愛 stand 忍受 endure 忍受 continue 繼續
start 開始 resist 忍受 tolerate 忍受 prefer 較喜好
bear 忍受 abhor 憎恨 detest 憎惡 neglect 忽略

advise 忠告---------------- etc.
start : I started to learn English when third grade. ----------小三我就開始習英文
=I started learning English when third grade.
begin : It began to rain as soon as we arrived. -------------我們一到就下起雨了
=It began raining as soon as we arrived.
like : I like to swim. -------------------------------------------------------我喜愛游泳
= I like swimming.
註: 精確地來說 like to + V 有「現在去做」的意思
like + V-ing 則意指「某事」
prefer : I prefer to read than play. ---------------------------我喜好閱讀不喜嬉戲
= I prefer reading to playing.
(2) 動詞後用動名詞與不定詞而意義不同者
forget : I forgot to turn the light off. 我忘了關燈
I forgot turning the light off. 我有關灯卻忘了
註:forget to + V---表示「忘了去做」,
forget + V-ing---表示「忘了做過的事」
remember : I will remember to see that movie. 我會記得去看那部電影
I remember seeing that movie. 我記得看過那部電影
註:remember to + V---表示「記得去做」
remember + V-ing---表示「記得做過的事」
stop : After working all day, he stopped ( working ) to take a rest.
After playing all day, he stopped ( playing ) to study.
註:stop to + V---表示「停下手邊的事去做別的事」
stop + V-ing---表示「停下手邊的事」
try : I never do this before, but I ‘ll try my best to do it. ( = make an attempt )
I did it before, let me try ( doing it ). ( = make an experiment )
註:try to + V---表示「之前沒經驗」
try + V-ing---表示「之前有經驗」
go : My father goes to sleep at 10 every night.
My father goes jogging every morning.
註:go to + V---表示去做「例行公事」
go + V-ing---表示去「休閒娛樂」
這個go是個"不完全不及物動詞(連綴動詞)",表「從事」請看這裡3.
所以這個V-ing其實是"現在分詞"作為主詞補語,因為主詞是"行為者"!
擺在這裡,是為了方便區分所有V+to V和V+V-ing的類型
go on : After math, he went on to study English. --讀數學後他繼續讀英文
He went on studying English for 2 hours. ------他一口氣讀了兩小時英文
註:go on to + V---表示接著去做「另一事」
go on +V-ing---表示繼續「同一事」
regret : I regret to say that. 我真不願這麼說(可是不得不說,還沒說)
I regret saying that. 我真後悔這麼說(可是已經說)
註:regret not to + V表示「後悔沒去做」
do not regret + V-ing表示「不後悔做了」
I regret not to do that. -------------------------------------我真後悔沒做那件事
I don’t regret doing that. ----------------------------------------我不後悔這麼做
