Lesson 293--using prefer

Prefer is a great verb to use because it can be followed by so many things and it can make some great sentences

Prefer + gerund

I prefer walking.

I prefer flying.

Prefer + nouns

I prefer the Playstation.

I prefer pizza.

Of course, the best thing is that you can make longer sentences using the comparative preposition "to"

I prefer flying to driving.

I prefer pizza to any other food.

You can also use infinitives, but you should not use the preposition "to" because it is very confusing.

I prefer to walk

I prefer to eat pizza.

When using would, the infinitive is prefered.

I'd prefer to walk home tonight.

I would prefer to watch the new Xmen movie.
