Grammar
Infinitives for reasons
You can use an infinitive (to + verb) to give a reason in an answer to a question with "Why?":
A Why are you going to Puerto Rico?
B To see my relatives.
You can also use the infinitive in a sentence to give a reason. Use main clause + infinitive (to +
verb) . . . :
I'm going to Puerto Rico to see my relatives.
(main clause = I'm going to Puerto Rico; reason = to see my relatives)
I need to go shopping to get a suitcase.
I have to go online to find a flight.

It's + adjective + to . . .
You can use It's + (not) adjective + to to describe a verb:
It's easy to find a cheap flight online.
It's not expensive to fly.

To ask a question, use Is + it + adjective + to + verb . . . ?:


A Is it easy to find bargains online?
B It's easy to do. / It's not hard to do.
