Any political figure who is intending on running for president will not succeed without a large quantity of campaign money...
A.
B. Who has the intention of running
C. who is intent to run
D. Intending on running
E. Intent on running
Both " intend to" and "intend on" are correct idioms. We can eliminate A, B and C for concision. However, I cant differentiate between intending and intent..WhaT is the difference?
Any political figure intending on running
Any political figure intent on running
As per Stacey: The cat circling the mouse...is correct
Could it be that -ing on -ing construction is not preferred?
If so, then is the following correct?
Any political figure intending to run
And would this one be incorrect?
Any political figure intent to run
I googled the net but can't find anything that clarifies the difference. And what is the difference between intent and intention? Any help is much appreciated
