what is the infinitive form of a verb in english
Infinitive In traditional descriptions of English, the infinitive is the basic dictionary form of a verb when used non-finitely, with or without the particle to. Thus to go is an infinitive, as is go in a sentence like "I must go there" (but not in "I go there", where it is a finite verb). The form without to is called the bare infinitive, and the form with to is called the full infinitive or to-infinitive.
God helps those who help themselves The phrase is often mistaken as a scriptural quote, though it is not stated verbatim in the Bible.
