@englishwithregan: “I stopped to eat chocolate” 🆚 “I stopped eating chocolate.” What’s the difference between these sentences? There is a grammar point that you should know! 🤔 This grammatical feature occurs with other English verbs where the meaning changes depending on the form of the verb you use! ❕ Note: I used the past simple for the examples to introduce the language in the simplest way to understand. 🔸 Stop to + infinitive = You pause one action to do another action. ✅ “I stopped to answer the phone.” ✅ “I’ve stopped to help you many times today.” 🔸 Stop + gerund (-ing) = You finish doing an action or activity and no longer do it. ✅ “I’ve stopped buying new clothes.” ✅ “You need to stop talking loudly.” Try making a sentence below using each of these forms!
