Infinitives are not verb tenses. Infinitives do not usually indicate the time of the action but are more general, i.e. without reference to time. (Hence 'infinitive')
Infinitives have two forms: Full infinitive and Bare infinitive, as shown below. Infinitives have many uses and functions.
FULL INFINITIVE
'Full infinitives' (also known as 'to-infinitives') include the word 'to', e.g. 'to say', 'to like', 'to write', 'to read', 'to explain' etc
The infinitive with the marker 'to' is the most common form of the infinitive.
Examples:
BARE INFINITIVE
The 'bare infinitive' is just the infinitive form withoutthe word 'to', e.g. say, like, write, read, explain, etc.

A bare infinitive is a base form of a verb without 'to,' such as 'go,' while a full infinitive includes 'to,' such as 'to go.' English uses both forms in different grammatical contexts, such as after modal verbs or with the verb 'let' for bare infinitives, while full infinitives are more commonly used in other situations.
An infinitive is the base form of a verb, combined with the word "to." It can function as a noun, adjective, or adverb in a sentence. For example, in the sentence "I want to eat," "to eat" is the infinitive form of the verb "eat."
To change simple past tense to bare infinitive, simply remove the -ed ending from regular verbs. For irregular verbs, the bare infinitive is the same as the base form of the verb in simple present tense. For example, "walked" becomes "walk" and "ate" stays as "eat".
I imagine that by "base form" you mean the "infinitive" of a verb. If the infinitive does not have the preposition "to" before it, it is referred to as the "bare infinitive". At least, that's the terminology I've come across when teaching English to foreigners.
No, "bear" and "bare" are not homophones. "Bear" refers to the animal, while "bare" means uncovered or naked.
Another homophone for "bare" is "bear."
This probably refers to the absence or presence of the infinitive marker "to." In the sentence "I must go" the infinitive ( "go") lacks the marker, while in the sentence "I want to go" the infinitive has it.
A bare infinitive is a linguistic term for the infinitive form of a verb, without the particle "to".
The infinitive "to read" is a bare infinitive.
Yes, or Short/Bare Infinitive.

Mexicans are very interesting.
There is no difference. They are homophones; words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings.

A bare conductor is a conductor that does not have any type of insulation covering it. Insulated conductors (also known as coated) have a covering that protects them from outside sources.
To change simple past tense to bare infinitive, simply remove the -ed ending from regular verbs. For irregular verbs, the bare infinitive is the same as the base form of the verb in simple present tense. For example, "walked" becomes "walk" and "ate" stays as "eat".
You can tell the difference between an uplander basic LS or LT by looking at or examining the feature set. The LS is essentially a stripped down or bare bones version of the LT.
The answer would be bear the cost. The difference between to bear can mean to carry, endure, tolerate, maintain direction or the animal. Bare is an adjective that means expose or naked.
