Infinitive? WTF? (Complaint)

What the hell is this *feces*?  Here I am breezing through 5th Grader. Totally pwning the blonde pregnant chick(although to be fair, she was just a plain idiot), and smoking the comb-over orange farmer, and leaving my wife agape at my Scarecrow like post sheepskin performance. All of a sudden: Bam! 4th grade English. What is the infinitive of the verb "went"?Uh, come again? What the *fudge* is that? I ain't never heard of that. Went? Left? Leaved? Split? Writ Wrat Wrote?  Well, Captain Minute Maid had no idea, and bailed, and lost, so they turned to the son who knew it. Then, Jeff Einsteinworty explains to all of us mouth breathers that it's the simplest form of the verb. e.g. "to go".   A. Who, and when came up with this bull*feces*?, and #2 I can think of a ton of verbs that.....WTF is the infinitive. Jumped: To exert muscular force in an effort to escape the earth's gravitational pull and advance incrementally through an environment? [place Cliff Claven Jeopardy photo here] |

pretty easy to answer if you have a combined latin+spanish schooling of about 20 class-years.

Or if you watched Star Trek regularly, you'd hear a split infinitive in every episode: "...to boldly go where no man has gone before." |

It's been a loooong freaking time, but I seem to remember studying that *feces* somewhere between the 5th and 8th grades. Woulda stumped me now, though. |
