Explanation:
The zero infinitive is a type of complement with an infinitive verb form that's not preceded by the particle to. Also known as the bare infinitive.
The zero (or bare) infinitive is used after verbs of perception (see, feel, hear), many auxiliary verbs (may, should, must), the verbs make and let, and the expressions had better and would rather. Contrast with the to-infinitive.
