Lengua 4.6: Expressions with the infinitive 2 ❏ While reading and listening, I can understand many common expressions with the infinitive. ❏ I understand acabar de and hay que in reading and listening, and I can sometimes correctly use them in my own writing. ❏ I know to avoid conjugating verbs immediately following prepositions (such as hasta , antes de , para , and sin ). ❏ In my speech and writing, I can sometimes correctly use infinitives as nouns that in English would be translated as nouns ending in -ing . ❏ While reading and listening, I can recognize some common expressions in the conditional tense such as “ podrías + infinitive” and “ me gustaría + infinitive.” 36.
