Question

"To err is human. "
What is the finite and non-finite verb in this sentence?

Answer 1

The non-finite verb in the statement here is 'err' and the finite verb will be 'is'.

What are finite and infinite verbs?

• A finite verb is a verb that contains a subject and a tense to it. While the total opposite of that a non-finite verb usually does not show any tense and is also used as nouns and adjectives.
• Another hint for a non-finite verb is that it includes all the gerunds,  infinitive & participle forms of the verbs.
• As here in the example, we see an infinitive form of the verb that is 'to err', and hence that comes out as our non-finite verb.
• Whereas, the verb 'is' is finite in nature because it can be changed according to the noun(singular/plural form) and also can be changed in terms of tense.
• Thus, the finite verb in the sentence will be 'is' and the non-finite verb of the sentence is 'err'.
