It sounds like an infinitive. to go, to read, etc.
Please learn how to spell grammar. That's one of the first things you should do to demonstrate that you are educated.
=)
An verb infinitive (to + verb)can be the object of another verb, as in
"I hate to study"
A verb infinitive can also take its own object, as in
"To avoid a bad grade, do your homework."
In that case, <to avoid (the infinitive)+ a bad grade (the object)> is called an infinitive phrase
