He is having the ability to think of new projects ...

[Eshaan]

"He is having the ability to think of new projects or new ways of doing things and make them successful"
In this sentence, infinitive phrase works as a adjective phrase describing the noun 'the ability' or else.
Could you break down it and how does it function in the sentence?

Please tells us the source and author of any sentence you ask us about.

 

[Eshaan]

I was reading about Infinitive, that time I made this sentence. I put it here to understand its function in the sentence.

 

[Tarheel]

I was reading about Infinitives. I wrote this sentence then posted it here to get help understanding it.

Although it doesn't make much sense, that's my interpretation of what you are saying.

 

[jutfrank]

First of all, say He has, not He is having.

For the sake of clarity, let's simplify your sentence:

He has the ability to think of new ways of doing things.

The blue part specifies the exact nature of the ability. If you remove the blue part, the meaning of the noun phrase (and indeed the whole sentence) is incomplete.

 

[Eshaan]

He has the ability to think of new ways of doing things.

Then, the blue part of the sentence is a adjective infinitive phrase describing the noun' the ability' . Isn't it?

 

[Eshaan]

Although it doesn't make much sense, that's my interpretation of what you are saying.

Yes, if you help me to understand it then it will be great.

No, it isn't an adjective phrase or a modifier. It's an infinitival complement.

@Eshaan I have improved your thread title. Use some/all of the words/phrases you are asking us about as your title. The subject or theme of your question, along with your actual question, should appear only in the main body of your post.

No, it isn't an adjective phrase or a modifier. It's an infinitival complement.

We read four complement 1.object 2.subject 3. adjective 4. adverbial. What complement is it?

My teacher has said this well but no comma here I didn't attend this class because of a family get-together.
I don't understand the underlined part.

My teacher said "This was is your punishment. You have to know learn it by yourself. So, to know this learn/study it, I read the whole complement section several times, yet I still don't get it.

How do you know your teacher taught that class well? You said you didn't go to that class because of a family gathering.

The answer to your question is in post #8.

 

[Eshaan]

Next class I have two class in a week, my friends said me it and sir said that "don't help me"

 

[Tarheel]

Yes, if you help me to understand it then it will be great.

You said you didn't understand your own sentence. You need to write sentences you understand. You can't expect others to figure them out for you.

For starters, simplify. Write shorter, simpler sentences. Don't overcomplicate things!

 

[emsr2d2]

Next class I have two class in a week, my friends said me it and sir said that "don't help me"

I don't understand any of your post. Please try to explain it in a different way.

 

[Eshaan]

How do you know your teacher taught that class well?

My friend said that sir explained it well.

You said you didn't go to that class because of a family gathering.

When I went into class after that class.

 

[Tarheel]

Next class I have two class in a week, my friends said me it and sir said that "don't help me"

For starters, that should be two sentences. Perhaps:

Next week I have two classes. My friends said our teacher told them not to help me.

(I am only 50% sure.)
