About 'suggest'


I'd like to know why we use '~ing' form of verbs instead of 'to infinitive' ?

In meaning, suggest is similar to advise which shows that suggest also might need 'to infinitve'.

Please tell me exactly ! ^^

There is no reason other than the fact that people have used certain verb forms long enough for them to become accepted usage. CB
