3.1.3 Non-finite verbs
A FINITE verb is marked for such grammatical categories as tense and agreement (if a language has these categories) and it can be the only verb in an independent clause. Some languages only have finite verbs, these include Mohawk, Nahuatl, Nunggubuyu and Ainu. Non-FINITE verbs are generally not marked for tense, agreement or any other grammatical categories associated with finite verbs, such as aspect or mood (but see Section 3.3.2). I divide non-finite verbs into INFINITIVES and PARTICIPLES. English has an infinitive plus two different participles.
