INTRODUCTION

From theoretical observations, one may conclude that the verb has pecu-liarities of two types: proper verbal and properties of other words (of the subject).

Consequently, word-forms that are characterized by the proper verbal categories are called non-finite forms of the verb. Topicality of this problem is of high importance, as some scientists impart such importance to the syntactic function of the verb as a predicate that they consider it impossible to regard verbids as verbal forms. Their opponents put forward the following counter-arguments in favour of non-finite verbal forms: 1) non-finite forms preserve the meaning of the corresponding finite verbal forms; 2) all non-finite forms may be derived from any verb (with the exception of modal verbs) using one model – specific for each non-finite form; 3) verbids are characterized by the tense and voice paradigms (aspect is characteristic of the Infinitive only), though deficient compared to those of finite verb forms, but formed following the models common both for finite and non-finite verb forms; 4) verbids parallel with finite forms in terms of dependent sentence parts, i.e. they are also modified by adverbs and require the object.

Object – the infinitive and participle in Modern English.

Subject – features of the infinitive and participle.

Therefore, the aim of our paper is to analyze and define the peculiarities of the infinitive and participle.

To reach this aim it is necessary to perform the following tasks:

1. To outline the peculiarities of the infinitive;

2. To define the specifics of participle I and II;

3. To present constructions with the infinitive;

4. To provide constructions with participles.
