*Mrzite, lajkujte, volite i preferirajte* Možemo koristiti *mržnju, sviđanje, ljubav i preferiranje* sa oblikom -ing ili sa to-infinitivom. U američkom engleskom, oblici sa to-infinitivom su mnogo češći od oblika -ing. Postoji vrlo mala razlika u značenju između ova dva oblika. *Forma -ing* naglašava *radnju ili iskustvo.* *To-infinitiv* daje veći naglasak na *rezultate* radnje ili događaja. Često koristimo oblik -ing da sugerišemo uživanje (ili nedostatak istog), a oblik to-infinitiv da izrazimo navike ili preferencije. Oblik -ing je češći od oblika to-infinitiva nakon *mržnje i ljubavi.* Kada koristimo "would"sa *mržnjom, like, love ili prefer* , koristimo *to-infinitiv* , a ne oblik -ing.*

*Tranzitivan ili intranzitivan* Nekim glagolima je uvijek potreban objekat. Oni se nazivaju prelazni glagoli. Neki glagoli nikada nemaju objekat. Oni se zovu neprelazni glagoli. Neki glagoli se mogu koristiti *sa objektom (prijelazno)* ili *bez objekta (neprijelazno).* Ponekad je značenje isto. Na primjer: "Please bring coffee."- U ovoj rečenici glagol "bring"je prelazan; njegov predmet je kafa, stvar koja se donosi. "The sun is shining."- U ovoj rečenici glagol "shine"je neprelazan, nije mu potreban objekat da bi rečenica imala smisla.
