"Never to give up" vs "To never give up" Tue Mar 20, 2007 15:01 pm  "Never to give up" vs "To never give up"
 

Hi,

If this is a sneaky way of asking whether or not infinitives can be split, my advice is split them if that's what you want to do. After all this is English not Latin!

Hi Alan,

Do you think it is all right to split the infinitive even when writing something a little more important such as a TOEFL or IELTS essay?
