In sentence (1), I understand that 'shopping' is a gerund, while went is the verb. Can I replace 'shopping' with 'to shop', as in sentence (2)? If not, please help me to understand why.
1) Lisa went shopping at the new mall with her mother.
2) Lisa went to shop at the new mall with her mother.
Thank you! :-D
