The words in bold type show to + verb form. These are Infinitives. An Infinitive is the base form of the verb. Infinitives are formed from a verb but they do not act as verbs because they are not verbs; ‘s’, ‘es’, or ‘ing’ cannot be added to that.
However, sometimes infinitives may occur without ‘to’. For example,
