Grammar

Gerund/Infinitive with(out) to?

0 Hello, 02br
02br
00I have to translate a series of Powerpoint slides from French into English. All of these slides contain a section called "Objectives" that gives the objectives of a product or service in a bullet list. I was wondering what form of the verb had to be used in such cases. 02br
02br
00For instance 02br
02br
00OBJECTIVES 02br
00 - Reducing/To reduce/Reduce the costs of the service... 02br
02br
00In the above example, which one would native speakers most commonly use? 02br
02br
00Thanks for any help050010id1

00I'd say it depended on the list of objectives. For instance, if you can start each bulleted objective with a verb, I would use an infinitive: 02br
02br
00OBJECTIVES 02br
00To reduce costs. 02br
00To disseminate false information about grammatical choices. 02br
00To get wasted. 02br
