An example of a split infinitive is: "I would like to definitely and rapidly solve this problem."When and why should we avoid splitting an infinitive?When we add too much information between the two parts of the infinitive, the sentence becomes clumsy, and the information is not direct. That can make it confusing.If the sentence is already clear, there is no reason to add more information, especially by splitting the infinitive. Let's use the example given above again. When we remove the split infinitive, the sentence is way easier to understand: "I would like to solve this problem."
