Grammar

Which is right? or Which feels more natural?

Hello

I'm a foregner and there's this grammar question that confuses me..

I think you can help me. It's a simple question so I hope you answer

1. I had him help her carry the bag.

2. I had him help her to carry the bag.

Which is right? or Which feels more natural?

or can they be both right with slightly different implication

I'm not sure if I'm putting all this up in a correct manner, I just visited this site...

anyways I hope you can help =)

Hi,

Both are OK. The verb help governs both the bare infinitive and the to-infinitive.
