Answer 2

The Objective-with-the-Infinitive construction is a grammatical structure where an infinitive verb phrase (to + base form of the verb) functions as the direct object of a verb or a verb phrase. It is commonly used after certain verbs that express mental activities, perceptions, causation, preference, permission, and other related concepts.
