Hello.Here are two exercises i came across today.
I really must get.......the central heating.
a)somebody to fix
b)somebody fix
They ought to have......replace the broken windows.
a)somebody to
b)somebody
The correct answers are marked with red.
I don't get it.Why does the first sentence use the long infinitive and the second sentence the short infinitive?
