In my textbook I came across this explanation "I see her dancing" means she is dancing now and I see her now, but "I see her dance" means "I see how she danced". I can't find it in modern books. Shouldn't it be "I saw her dancing" which means she was in the process of dancing" and "I saw her dance" which means "she danced", which is a completed action, but not "I see her dance" which doesn't mean the same as "I saw her dance"?
It's a Georgian-English textbook. Perhaps it's a typo or an old use.
