This video is about verb patterns. In this mini-lesson, Mr. P./Marc will explain four types of verb patterns: Verb + gerund, verb + infinitive, verb + to + gerund, and verb + base of a verb (without either an infinitive or a gerund). As usual in his other lessons, he will explain these forms using simple examples. The lesson is intended for students of the English language who have acquired an intermediate level or above.
