Infinitive phrases starts with infinitives that is, “to” added by a simple verb and can be used as nouns, adjectives or adverbs. In the case of including a main clause in the sentence, infinitive phrase separates it with comma.   ‘

To speak clearly’ and ‘to being understood’ are used as an adverb because ‘to’ precedes to the word ‘speak’ which is a verb, an action word.

Secondly, when a subordinate conjunction is used and thirdly, if it answer the ‘adverbial questions’ – when, why, when and how. It is also further categorized to time, place, manner, degree, condition, concession and reason.</span>
