Small mistakes are often made when it comes to gerunds and infinitives. Therefore, it's important to understand - and practice - which verbs are followed by a gerund and which are followed by an infinitive.
Below are a couple of helpful resources. The first is a list of some common verbs and whether they are followed by a gerund, infinitive, or both. The next resource is Google's Ngram Viewer. This allows us to compare the frequency of different words and phrases.
