The infinitive form of verbs in English is the uninflected form - the 'to' form. All the finite forms (those forms that are inflected by number, person, voice, mood, and tense) are derived from it.

For example:

To eat (infinitive).

He eats;

We will eat;

They had eaten;

I shall not eat;

You ate;

She would be eating

(all these are finite forms).
