常用動詞配搭
以下是各動詞的常見配搭，並非所有可能結構。not 通常放在 -ing 或 to-infinitive 前，表達相應動作的否定。
| 項目 | 用法及例子 | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| 動詞 + -ing | enjoy reading；avoid wasting；finish writing；suggest meeting | She suggested meeting after school. 不寫 suggested to meet。 |
| 動詞 + to-infinitive | want to learn；decide to leave；hope to join；promise to help | They decided to leave early. |
| 動詞 + 賓語 + to-infinitive | ask him to wait；tell her to stop；invite them to join | The teacher asked us to check the dates. |
| 否定形式 | not knowing；not to go | He decided not to go. not 否定 go 這個動作。 |
形式改變，意思也可能不同
stop、remember、try 等動詞可接兩種形式，但兩者指向的動作關係不同。
| 項目 | 用法及例子 | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| stop doing / stop to do | She stopped talking. / She stopped to answer the phone. | 前者是停止說話；後者是停下原來的活動，轉而接電話。 |
| remember doing / remember to do | I remember locking the door. / Remember to lock the door. | 前者是記得做過；後者是提醒要完成某事。 |
| try doing / try to do | Try restarting the device. / I tried to lift the box. | 前者是嘗試一個方法；後者着重努力嘗試完成動作。 |
| regret doing / regret to say | I regret missing the concert. / We regret to inform you that… | 前者為已做或已發生的事感到後悔；後者是正式表達不願傳達壞消息。 |
介詞後的 -ing 與不定式的 to
to 可以是介詞，也可以是不定式標記。不能看到 to 便一律接原形動詞。
| 項目 | 用法及例子 | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| 介詞 + -ing | She is interested in learning French. | in 是介詞，後面用 learning。 |
| look forward to | We look forward to meeting you. | 這裏的 to 是介詞，用 meeting，不是 meet。 |
| used to / be used to | I used to walk to school. / I am used to walking to school. | 前者表示過去習慣；後者表示已習慣某事，to 為介詞。 |
