I have been learning English for 8 years and I belive I really studied English well from a few good English grammar books and I also have a few grammar books in all levels. BUT I have recently seen a subject which I have never met before before, It is tenses of the infinitives.

I know afew things inside it but I had never come across it as a title of grammar subjects. Could you explain me this subject please ................

Hi redkiddy,

I think this is what is meant:

Active

Present simple (to) cook
Present continuous (to) be cooking
Present perfect simple (to) have cooked
Present perfect continuous (to) have been cooking

Passive

Present simple (to) be cooked
Present perfect simple (to) have been cooked
