required to do something.

hacer eso
 paramos lo que estábamos haciendo e
compramos el pescado

es un recuerdo

acuerdate, no se olvide

Prueba algo, experimentar

hacer un esfuerzo, intentalo

“If the first verb happens before the second verb, use TO. If the second verb
happens at the same time or before the first verb use the ending -ING with the
second verb.

For example: I want to go out. (First I want and then I will go out) She stopped smoking.
(First she smoked and then she stopped.) He agreed to do it. (First he agreed and then
he did it)”

Simple, isn’t it? However, you have to be careful as the rule does not work for the
verbs suggest, pretend and fail.
