배울 내용

안녕하세요! 이제 기초적인 문장을 넘어서서, 조금 더 디테일하고 자연스러운 영어를 구사하고 싶지 않으신가요? 이번 챕터에서는 여러분의 표현력을 한 단계 더 업그레이드해 줄 세 가지 핵심 규칙을 배워볼 거예요. 먼저 'want to go'와 'enjoy going'처럼 동사 뒤에 to 부정사를 쓸지, -ing를 쓸지 구분하는 법을 익힙니다. 이걸 알면 여러분의 취향이나 계획을 더 정확하게 말할 수 있어요. 또한, '공부하려고(to study) 도서관에 가요'나 '선물용(for a gift)이에요'처럼 내 행동의 목적을 설명하는 법도 배웁니다. 여행지에서 길을 묻거나 물건의 용도를 설명할 때 정말 유용하겠죠? 마지막으로 '나에게 책을 줘'와 같이 대상이 두 개인 문장 패턴까지 정복하고 나면, 문장 구조가 훨씬 탄탄해질 거예요. 이 챕터를 마치면 단순히 단어를 나열하는 것을 넘어, 자신의 의도와 목적을 논리적으로 설명하는 자신감을 얻게 될 거예요. 자, 함께 시작해 볼까요?

Review Summary

  • Verb + to + Verb OR Verb + Verb-ing
  • To + Verb
  • Verb + Person + Thing

자주 하는 실수

The verb 'enjoy' must be followed by a gerund (-ing), not an infinitive.

Wrong: I enjoy to play tennis.
정답: I enjoy playing tennis.

Use 'to' + verb for purpose, not 'for'. 'For' is followed by a noun.

Wrong: I go to the shop for buy bread.
정답: I go to the shop to buy bread.

When the person is the indirect object, you don't need 'to' if the person comes first.

Wrong: Give to me the pen.
정답: Give me the pen.

No, never. Use 'to' instead.
Yes, or gerunds (verb-ing) when describing function.
Most of the time, yes. However, some verbs like 'explain' only work with the 'to' pattern.
We use 'for' when the action is done for someone's benefit, like 'buying' or 'making'.
