Which is correct?
|

Dear colleagues, Could anybody say, which sentence is correct from the point of using verb patterns:
Men hate going shopping. or Men hate go shopping?
Thank you very much, indeed. |

Men hate going shopping (using the gerund) is certainly correct. You need the infinitive for the other. Men hate to go shopping is fine, but you need that to. |

After hate / dislike the verb comes in the -ing form. Men hate / dislike going shopping, but women like it very much! |

Hi I think that verbs that come after like hate , love.....take the infinitive form or the gerund form so we can say men hate going shopping or men hate to go shopping.. |

just to add: if you use " hate "in the conditional tense, you can only use the full infinitive, ( to + verb) men would hate to go shopping while on holidays. |
