In grammar, infinitive is the name for certain verb forms that exist in many languages.
In the usual (traditional) description of English, the infinitive of a verb is its basic form with or without the particle to: therefore, do and to do, be and to be, and so on are infinitives.
As with many linguistic concepts, there is not a single definition of infinitive that applies to all languages.
