Identify the infinitive.<br><br> James likes to eat pizza and listen to music.
Trava [24]
Infinitives in the English language are relatives easy to spot. You just have to locate the word TO followed by a verb.
Here, the infinitive is to eat.
There is another TO in the sentence (to music), however, the word music is not a verb, which means that <em>to music </em>is not an infinitive.
