English term or phrase: inflected infinitive
And, if it is an infinitive and the translation into Portuguese, there is a good chance we should use an inflected infinitive (infinitivo flexionado, which, in the case of regular verbs, is identical to the future subjunctive) - for Portuguese infinitives can change for person too, which is more than they can do in many other famous and excellent languages.

To be honest I must have dozed off in the descriptive grammar class a couple of years back... - can someone help me?!
