InfForm: form of infinitive
(Please note: the labels on this page, including the feature name
InfForm, are subject to change.)
Finnish has multiple infinitive forms, often termed the first infinitive, second infinitive, etc. Traditionally five different infinitives have been recognized, but UD Finnish follows the modern ISK grammar in only recognizing three verb forms as infinitives, namely those known as the first, second and third infinitives (alternatively termed the A-, E- and MA-infinitives, see e.g. VISK § 119; in Finnish).
1: first infinitive
The first infinitive is also known as the A-infinitive. It corresponds roughly to the English infinitive introduced by to.
The base form of the first infinitive is used as the dictionary form for verbs.
Examples
- [fi] He haluavat jutella “They want to talk”

2: second infinitive
The second infinitive is also known as the E-infinitive.
Examples
- [fi] ottaen huomioon “taking into account”

3: third infinitive
The third infinitive is also known as the MA-infinitive.
Examples
- [fi] Menen katsomaan musikaalia “I am going to see a musical”
