Vocabulary
anticipate ing?
When I change 'look forward to' to 'anticipate', can I use 'anticipate + ing' form? Or does it take noun only?
I'm really looking forward to inheriting the property.
I'm really anticipating inheriting the property.
(I mean 'look forward to' not 'expect that sth will happen')
Thank you in advance
