    The document discusses verb patterns when using two verbs together in a sentence. It states that the second verb should be in either the -ing form or base form. It provides examples like "I love working here" and "She hates swimming." It also notes that sometimes both forms are possible after some verbs, like "started talking" and "started to talk." Furthermore, it says to use the -ing form after verbs describing feelings, like "love" and "hate," and the infinitive form with "to" after verbs like "want," "would like," and "need."
