Today we learnt.........

English
"To" is usually followed by the infinitive (base form).
E.g.
He seems to like ice-cream.
You have to take your medicine three times a day.

I also gave 2 instances when "to" is not followed by the infinitive.
1) I am looking forward to meeting you/ I am looking forward to watching the movie with you.
2) I prefer swimming to jogging.

We also learnt that a clause is a part of a sentence that contains its own verb.
E.g.
"She went to the market early as she wanted to avoid the crowd.
"She wanted to avoid the crowd" is a clause. It has its own verb -wanted.
