Helping Verbs + Infinitive
‫ ֵשם ֹפ ַעל‬+ ‫ָפ ֳע ֵלי ֵע ֶזר‬

Before we start learning an infinitive form of a certain verb group, let’s first
get acquainted with very useful helping verbs. These helping verbs will help
you to easily and quickly create sentences with new verbs in the infinitive
form.

As in English, it is impossible to use the infinitive form of the verb without the
preceding “helping” verbs. For instance, you cannot say “I to eat soup now”. The
correct way is “I want to eat soup now”.

The helping verb "want" ‫ רֹו ֶצה‬always comes in front of the infinitive form of

another verb. Let's first take a look at this verb in singular - male and female.

English Fem. Masc.
Want

‫רֹו ֶצה רֹו ָצה‬

Need (to), have to

‫ְצ ִרי ָכה‬ ‫ָצ ִריְך‬

Love, like

‫אֹו ֵהב אֹו ֶה ֶבת‬
