By definition, a non-finite verb cannot serve

as the main verb in an independent clause. In practical terms, this means that they don't serve as the action of a sentence. They also don't have a tense. There are three types of non-finite verbs: gerunds, participles, and infinitives

hope this may helpful :-)

Answer:

Non-finite Verbs

A non-finite verb is a verb form that does not show tense. In other words, you cannot tell if a sentence is in the past tense, present tense, or future tense by looking at a non-finite verb. Therefore, a non-finite verb is never the main verb in a sentence. (That's a finite verb.) There are three types of non-finite verbs:

Gerunds (e.g., "baking," "singing").

Infinitives (e.g., "to bake," "to sing").

Participles. There are two types:

Present Participles (e.g., "baking," "singing").

Past Participles (e.g., "baked," "sung").

Non-finite verbs function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs or combine with a finite verb for verb tense.
