Well, I don't know if I can go much further with this but this was my
main rationale for not marking verbs and nouns separately in Sasxsek.
There is a blue there between a verb infinitive and a gerund.  For
example, these two sentences essentially mean the same thing.

	I like to run.	(infinitive)
	I like running.	(gerund)
