Abstract


This paper presents a brief research for the features that distinguish the dynamic infinitives from the declarative infinitives, in order to determine whether they are different types of verb-phrase complementation. Differences are found in the semantemes of the main predicates, the semantic relation of the main predicate and the infinitive, the capability of the infinitive to express tense and mood and the syntactic structure of the infinitive phrase/clause. The conclusion is that they are different types of infinitive complementation. The dynamic infinitive is a nomen actionis representing the verbal action taken as an abstract content and it may, given a certain context, have either a virtual or a factual (contextual) sense. The declarative infinitive, on the contrary, is the predicate of a subordinate clause and it has similar grammatical values to those of the personal verb forms in other subordinate clauses.
