What is an infinitive verb?

An infinitive verb is essentially just the simplest form that a verb can be.It doesn't specify anything to do with who is completing the action; just the action itself.For example, in English we have infinitive verbs such as:To JumpTo Speak To DrinkIn Spanish, these would be:SaltarHablarBeber *Remember! All infinitive verbs in Spanish will end in either -AR, -ER, or -IR
