Bonjour à tous,
J'ai besoin de votre aide, pour un truc tout bête, et c'est une question à propos de l'anglais ... Comment on fait quand 2 verbes à l'infinitif se suivent ? Par exemple, "aller boire", est-ce "to go to drink", ou "to go drink" ? Merci pour vos futurs réponses ! Edited by ChromeShady on 17 August 2011 at 12:43pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Generalement, on ne dit pas "to go to drink" ou "to go to read" ou "to go to <verb>". On dirait "to go read" ou "to go drink".
Mais dans cet example, "to go drink" peut impliquer d'alcool. La meilleure expression serait "to get a drink of...water" Vraiment, sera depend de quel type de boisson. Par example, Tea/Cafe--"to have a cup of tea" ou "to have a cup of coffee" ou "to have some tea". Ca n'est pas "to go drink tea" ou "to go drink coffee". C'est exact, mais maladroit. Soda--"to have some soda" ou "to go get a soda" C'est le contexte. (Désolé pour les erreurs grammaticales) Edited by AriD2385 on 17 August 2011 at 7:12pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Ça dépend du verbe. Par exemple, on dit "to go drink", mais "to want to drink". Néanmoins, je dirais qu'il est plus fréquent d'utiliser "to".
C'est un peu comme en français où chaque verbe doit être suivi d'une préposition particulière (penser à, oublier de, etc.) -- chaque verbe a ses propres exigences. C'est pourquoi il est essentiel d'apprendre les mots dans le contexte d'une phrase complète. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I have tried to imagine situations in English where two infinitives follow each other, but I normally end up with something that sounds weird or clumsy. In ChromeShady's examples there is a movement verb. In that construction I have that feeling that questions with two 'clean' infinitives are slightly less unacceptable, and that a "to" sometimes can save a non-interrogative sentence : "could you go fetch this for me?", "you must come to do this now". But as the two preceding answers suggest the rules change everyt time you try out another verb.

On utilise le plus souvent "and"
go and drink -> j'y vais, et j'y vais boire quelquechose. Sans "and" ca sonne un peu coloquial. Si on utilise "to", cela implique une raison: go to drink -> la raison pourquoi j'y vais est expres pour y boire 1 person has voted this message useful | |
