That's another hard day over!

Some verbs can be followed by gerunds or infinitives, but with a change in meaning:

FORGET, REGRET and REMEMBER: when these verbs are followed by -ing, they refer to something that happened before a certain time; when they're followed by to they refer to something that happens at or after a certain time.

What's the difference?

                    I'll never forget going to Japan
                    Don't forget to meet me at 5 o'clock

                    I don't regret leaving my job
                    We regret to inform you the interview was cancelled

                   I remember meeting you last year
                   Please remember to close the door

Stop + -ing means to interrupt an activity in order to do something else.
Stop + infinitive means to interrupt an action

Can you think of an example for each situation?

Try + to means to attemp doing something
Try + -ing means doing something as an experiment

Think of an example for each situation

See you on Wednesday!
