    Verb Patterns

    The document discusses the use of various verbs followed by either an infinitive (to + verb) or -ing form of the verb. It provides examples of when an infinitive or -ing form would be used after verbs like hear, forget, remember, go on, regret, try, want, stop, be sorry, and mean. For example, it notes that "hear" can take a direct object + infinitive to indicate hearing an entire event, or a direct object + -ing to indicate only hearing part of an event. It also explains the differences in meaning between combinations like "forget to" and "forget -ing", or "want to" and "want -ing".
