*Benci, suka, cinta, dan lebih suka* Kita bisa menggunakan *hate, like, love, dan prefer* dengan bentuk -ing atau dengan to-infinitive. Dalam bahasa Inggris Amerika, bentuk dengan to-infinitive jauh lebih umum daripada bentuk -ing. Ada perbedaan yang sangat kecil dalam arti antara kedua bentuk tersebut. *Bentuk -ing* menekankan *tindakan atau pengalaman.* *To-infinitive* lebih menekankan pada *hasil* dari tindakan atau peristiwa. Kita sering menggunakan bentuk -ing untuk menyarankan kesenangan (atau kekurangannya), dan bentuk infinitif to untuk menyatakan kebiasaan atau preferensi. Bentuk -ing lebih umum daripada bentuk infinitif to setelah *benci dan cinta.* Ketika kita menggunakan "would"dengan *hate, like, love, atau prefer* , kita menggunakan *to-infinitive* , bukan bentuk -ing.*
