Penjelasan: Kata kerja yang ditandai dengan sebuah bullet (*) juga bisa diikuti verb infinitive. Kata kerja yang berwarna merah mempunyai arti yang berbeda ketika diikuti verb gerunda atau verb infinitive.
- Forget
a) I often forget to lock the door. (saya sering lupa untuk mengunci pintu) b) I'll never forget seeing America for the first time. (saya tidak akan pernah melupakan kenangan Amerika ketika aku melihatnya untuk pertama kalinya) Forget + infinitive bermakan lupa untuk melakukan sebuah kewajiban/tugas. Forget + gerund bermakna melupakan sesuatu yang terjadi di masa lampau. Forget + gerund biasanya hanya teradi pada kalimat negativedan question.
- Prefer
a) I prefer staying home to going to the concert. b) I prefer to stay home than go to the concert. Forget + gerund atau forget + infinitive mempunyai makna yang tidak berbeda. Perbedaannya terletak pada bentuk struktur kalimatnya. Perhatikan TO dan THAN. To dan than diatas bermakna daripada.
- Regret
a) We regret to tell you that you failed the test.(kami menyesal harus mengatakan bahwa Anda tidak lulus) b) I regret telling him the secret. He told every one about that secret. (saya menyesal telah menceritakan rahasia itu kepadanya. Dia menceritakan semua orang tentang rahasia itu) Regret + infinitive bermakna menceritakan suatu kabar buruk/tidak sesuai harapan. Regret + gerund bermakna menyesal atas kejadian yang telah terjadi.
- Remember
a) Mike always remembers to lock the door. (Mike selalu ingat untuk mengunci pintu) b) I remember seeing my wife for the first time. She looked so beautiful. (saya mengenang kenangan ketika saya melihat istri saya untuk pertama kalinya. Dia nampak begitu cantik) Remember + infinitive bermakna ingat untuk melakukan tugas. Remember + gerund bermakna mengenang kejadian masa lalu.
- Stop
a) My grandma stopped smoking when he was 30. (kakek saya berhenti merokok ketika berumur 30 tahun) b) When I was walking down the street, I stopped to talk to my old friend. (ketika saya sedang jalan-jalan, saya berhenti untuk berbicara ke seorang teman lama saya) Stop + gerund bermakna berhenti. Stop + infinitive bermakna berhenti dengan tujuan.
- Try
a) I'm trying to learn English. b) The room was hot. I tried opening the window, but that didn't help. So I tried turning on the fan, but I was still hot. Finally, I turned on the air conditioner. Try + infinitive bermakna mencoba. Try + gerunda bermakna bereksperimen atau mencoba dengan cara yang baru/berbeda untuk tahu apa berhasil atau tidak.

Dear tutor,saya belum mengerti ttg kata kerja bila diikuti gerund atau to infinitive mempunyai arti yg berbeda.seperti pd forget yg telah diteeangkan diatas.bisa enggak kata forget diikuti kata kerja yg sama.dan bagaimana aetinya.
BalasHapusContoh:-I forgot to lock the door yesterday.
-I forgot locking the door yesterday.
Bagaimana pendapat tutor ttg kedua kalimat tsb.trimakasih
forget + to inf = lupa/tidak mengingat
Hapusforget + gerund = berhenti memikirkan/mengenang sesuatu atau seseorang
