Answer:
The given sentence is : -
Government officials predicted that it would be impossible to relocate so many people
- The infinitive is - 'to relocate'.
- According to the next question the sentence is : - He wanted to relocate his firm and started a fresh business.
Explanation :
- When preposition 'to' is used before a base form of verb, it is called 'to infinitive' or 'infinitive'. Here 'to' has taken its place before the base form, 'relocate', so 'to relocate' is an infinitive.
- Infinitive is a part of Non-finite verb. It doesn't follow the rules and regulations of tense, person and number, it doesn't change. For example : They want to buy some books. He wanted to buy a new pencil case. Both sentences are different, first one is a simple present tense and second one is a simple past tense, 'to buy' is unchanged here.
- Example : You came here to take some rice and water.
