Hello!
I would like to understand better the use of "to" in the second part of the next sentence:
"I will go to the supermarket" (whether they want me to or not).
I can´t imagine any examples of this kind right now, as I don´t understand its grammatical reason. Could you, please, provide me with some examples or cases where I could use "to" in a similar way?. I think "to", here, is substituting the verb "to go". Is it that we can say either "want me to..." or "want me to go..." interchangeably, being the first case just a way to shorten the phrase, to simplify it?.
Thank you so much in advance.
