Hi

An infinitive is formed from a verb but doesn't act as a verb.It acts as a noun, adjective, or adverb, and it is actually made up of two words: to + verb. These two words act together as a noun, adjective, or adverb.

Sentence -They had to watch over the protected nest to prevent thefts.

So in this sentence infinitives are

  1. to watch
  2. to prevent
