In this chapter you are supposed to summarize and complete your theoretical knowledge of individual non-finite verb forms - infinitive, gerund, present and past participles. We simply use these forms as means of making complex verb phrases without thinking of their features and their relevance in the area of sentence structuring. This chapter will show you how these forms - actually heads of non-finite clauses function as means of sentence condensation.
