What is the founding of a small business? Is the fact wrong is right?
One of my Japanese students said the following today when we were practicing for an MBA interview.
I really wants to create my own venture. I made
this error. This guy was talking about his long-term goal, hence “to start” or “launch” would be better than the verb “to find” and can not explain who is talking about the reason.
When I said this to my student, they said there is a verb “to found”. They took it to a math class. Why can’t I just say “I want to start a business,” no?
At least I’ve never heard this kind of sentence so I’m confused about what the student means… Can
someone please enlighten me? Is the student wrong or if I’m not getting anything?
Is there a better way to say “asking for tea”?
To found is correct: to set up or establish on a firm basis or for enduring existence.
Usually the infinitive will be used
if I want to invest and
not if I buy a book
I
want to start a company (Edit:)
So if as mentioned in the
comment below, I want to be founding a company then I will also
try to start a book. I also need the infinitive.
What is the difference between a.. and.? Using want to found implies that this is a thing you want to do at some point, want to be founding implies a particular point in time that you want to be involved in this process (e.g. start the project and finish it by stating what you want to do in the end). In my opinion, this is the type of stuff you want to do at some point, and if there’s no point in time, I’m not interested. If you have five years on your hands, what will you see yourself doing? “I want to be founding a company (((I
desire to do more than one)”

The verb to found means
establish or originate (an institution or organization)
How briefly, in this instance to found is an infinitive, which can (and in this sentence, does) act as a noun, effectively the direct object of want in the sentence you cite.
The sentence I want to start my own venture is correct, although the word venture may be considered vague.
I want to founding an adventure,
which I can still use’ I
am founding an adventure
I founded an adventure Being
past tense. I can
use this also. Although I personally wouldn’t use this term as it would easily be passed as a misspelling of the sentence I find an adventure. Is creating an adventure not building the adventure are the better options?

If to Found is an infinitive (basically form of the verb) which means To create or establish, particularly those things which have a continuation existence e.g. water, sunlight, life, ice and rain. To Create is an infinitive (basically form of the verb) which means To create or establish. ‘Building’ means big building.
When we write that a person is a Founder of this Company, or the phrase that we keep the Foundation of a house, the infinitive form of the word Found is used.
Thus, the “Finishing a business” is grammatically correct. If you changed the correct verb, choose from the following sentences: I
want to start up my own business in the future.
