All I have to do is learn English
0 There is no doubt that the sentence "All I have to do is to learn English" is correct. But how about the following two sentences: 02 br
00 1)All I have to do is learn English. (someone told me 'to' can be omitted here,but I am not sure) 02 br
00 2) All I have to do is learning English. (I know this sentence is grammatically right, but is there something different with the subject sentence?) 02 br
00 Thank you for your help in advance. 0-

0 1-- yes, the 'to' can be omitted. 02 br 00 2-- not grammatically right: you have an infinitive ('to do' set in parallel to a participial clause or gerund). Or you can look at it as 'have to do' = 'must do'.
- 0 1-- yes, the 'to' can be omitted.
- 02 br 00 2-- not grammatically right: you have an infinitive ('to do' set in parallel to a participial clause or gerund).
- Or you can look at it as 'have to do' = 'must do'.
- 01 b 00 X 02 b 00 'I must learning English'??
