Select the phrase from the sentence that contains an infinitive. She went to the store to get some bread.

Ato get

Bsome bread

Cto the store

Dno infinitive

Answer:

A. to get

Read Explanation:

An infinitive is the base form of a verb usually preceded by "to".

In the sentence:

"She went to the store to get some bread."

  • to get → infinitive (to + verb)

  • some bread → noun phrase

  • to the store → prepositional phrase (to is a preposition here, not part of an infinitive)

Therefore:

to get is the phrase that contains an infinitive.
