Doubt

Is it wrong if I say, "I discussed having a good salary" or "I discussed to have good salary"?

Hi Steve,

The first one is correct and the second one is not. The first one uses the gerund "-ing" form, which is used when something has already happened. The second one uses the infinitive "to (+verb)" form, and that's used for something that possibly could happen. Since you have "discussed" (past tense), we know it happened; therefore, you must use the gerund form.

Please feel free to ask any more questions you may have. Keep writing! =)

The correct sentence is: I discussed having a good salary.

I would be worried about someone discussing with themselves.

I discussed  spoke about having a good salary.

I discussed  talked about having a good salary.

I discussed  said something about having a good salary.

I discussed  mentioned having a good salary.

I can speak on my own:

I speak, I say, I mention.

We can speak together or discuss with others:

We speak, we say, we discuss.  

I discussed  spoke about having a good salary.

I discussed  talked about having a good salary.

I discussed  said something about having a good salary.

He speaks, He says, I mentions.

I discussed  talked about having a good salary.

I discussed  said something about having a good salary.

We discussed  spoke about having good salaries.

We discussed  talked about having good salaries.
