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.

An infinitive is an unconjugated verb: no one is doing the action. For example, to walk is an infinitive; no one is doing the walking. I walk is conjugated to the first person; I am doing the walking.To is generally the sign of infinitive. To play, to sing, to watchI went to market to buy some books. He wishes to behappy.However, after certain verbs 'bare infinitive ' is used.I saw him walk down the hill. He heard me sing. (bare infinitive)
If the verb is a regular verb then just remove the -ed ending eg walked = walk, listened = listen, happened = happen If the verb is an irregular verb the you need to know what the bare infinitive is because the past tense form of irregular verbs varies. eg ran = run, ate = eat, bought = buy
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.
There is no difference. They are homophones; words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings.
