Why is the undefined form of the verb so called? Where does the verb "lean"?

Do you want, I will teach you to quickly determine in what form the verb stands ? It's easy, you just need to know a certain algorithm.

Walk, lay, lie ... Go, bed, lie down (or lie down) ... What distinguishes these verbs, because at first glance they are so similar?

Their difference is in the inclination. The first three verbs have no time, no face, no other signs. They simply designate, as befits verbs, the action. This is an indeterminate form of the verb. It is also called the initial (which is not entirely correct) or the infinitive. Who, at what time, carried out the action, this non-conjugate form of the verb does not indicate.

Verbs that stand in this form have the following characteristics:

• View. The question "what to do?" (Running, painting, drawing) indicates that the action is not finished, not completed until the end. This kind of verbs is called imperfect.

The question "what to do?" (Run, paint, paint) indicates that the action has a limit, it has already happened, it is over, so these verbs are of the perfect kind.

• The indefinite form of the verb does not interfere with determining the transitivity of verbs. If the action in this context goes to the object (paint the table, draw a little man, see the acquaintance), if the verb without a preposition is combined with the accusative case, then it will be considered transitional.

If the action can not be transferred to an object (for example, you can not say "go a person"), then the verb will be intransitive.

Sometimes the same verb can be transitive in one text (We are tired of painting a wall) and intransitive in another (We are tired of painting all day).

• The indefinite form of the verb is not alien to recurrence. What to do? Protect and protect, twist and spin. However, not all verbs can be returnable: to be able, to lie, to walk.
• Since the indefinite form of the verb does not conjugate, in order to understand when, by whom the action was carried out, whether it took place in reality, or was produced only in dreams, it is necessary to determine the inclination of the verb. There are only three of them.

• The imperative form of the verb denotes an order, a motivation for some action, a request. Verbs "color", "sing", "bring", "give" are in the imperative mood.
• The conditional mood "lives in dreams." It is formed by the formula "the basis of the infinitive + the suffix A + the particle would (b)). I would go to the movies, if there was not laziness. I would not sleep, I would not eat, and worked all day. I could. Only a pity: it's all doing laziness. These verbs can stand in any number, but in a single they still vary by birth. They denote the action possible under certain conditions.
• If the verb does not have a particle, if it does not contain an order, Then it stands in the form of an indicative mood. Drawing, drawing, drawing, drawing, drawing, drawing, drawing - these are examples of such an inclination. It is in the indicative mood that we use verbs most often. Why? Yes, because actions that have already been, which take place at a given moment or will happen sometime, denote the verbs in this inclination.

It is in this inclination that verbs can change at times (I walk, walk, I descend), on faces (walking, walking, walking, walking, walking, walking), numbers.
