To / For

What are the rules for using of "to" and "for"? I always get confused.

 

Hello Shirley

 The answer to this question depends on the context of the language in which 'to' and 'for' are being used. If a verb is to follow the word then it will be to + infinitive and for + verb-ing. But please note that this is a general rule and you will find some cirucmstances when we use to + verb-ing.

 

If you give me some examples I will try and explain further.

 

Hope this helps

 

Bob
