Focusing on the grammar of to infinitives and gerundial -ing clauses, this book examines their interplay within syntax and semantics, particularly in light of the Great Complement Shift. Through six chapters, the author analyzes the semantic characteristics of constructions favoring gerundial forms over to infinitives, utilizing extensive electronic corpora for authentic evidence. By identifying trends in usage and introducing The Choice Principle, the work offers fresh insights into the semantics of these grammatical forms, appealing to those studying English grammar and its evolution.
