Pravilna upotreba "help do", "help to do" i "help doing" u engleskom jeziku

U engleskom jeziku možemo koristiti i konstrukciju „help someone do something“, kao i konstrukciju „help someone to do something“. Oblik bez „to“ je češći u svakodnevnom govoru nego oblik sa „to“ (posebno u američkom engleskom), ali oba oblika se često koriste u pisanju:

He helped me move to London. (more common)

He helped me to move to London. (less common when speaking)

Neki studenti pokušavaju kombinovati oblik sa nastavkom -ing, koji nalazimo u drugim frazama sa glagolom „help“, ali to nažalost nije ispravno:

He helped me (to) move to London.

He helped me moving to London.

Postoji, međutim, jedna neformalna fraza u kojoj zaista koristimo „help doing“, konkretno „cannot help doing“. Ako neko „cannot help doing something“, ne može potisnuti potrebu da to uradi. Na primer:

I can't help thinking about her constantly = Moram stalno misliti na nju. Ne mogu prestati misliti na nju.

Ovaj idiom znači isto što i „cannot help but do“ – možemo takođe reći „I cannot help but think about her constantly“.
