I am looking to identify infinite clauses that are used as a new subject in a language sample. In "I won't have to reach", is the infinitive "to reach" used as a subject or as a direct object?

@slpra,
“Have to” is an obligation verb. There is no infinitive in your sentence.

Just google “using have to in a sentence. “
