Can "to" be used alone to define a cause for something?
Hello everyone,
Normally we can say: "I made a decision to make you happy." and "to" here is defining a reason.
My point is about it. We can use "for" alone in a sentence like "It is for your life."
Okay then, can we also use "to" on the same way?
For example, can I say:
1-) "I made a decision which is to make you happy. ?
Or
2-) "It is for your life to be better."
or
3-) "It is to make you happy." ?
Even if they are not used in daily life, I wonder whether they are possible gramatically or not? Thank you very much.
