§ 7. The split infinitive. "Splitting an infinitive" is usually considered unacceptable and should generally be avoided. I want you to understand that clearly. However, we often do separate to from the infinitive in spoken English, depending on where the emphasis falls: I want you to clearly understand what Fm telling you. This often the case with adverbs like: completely, fully, really, truly.
§ 8. Verb + object + infinitive. When the subject of the infinitive form is different from the subject of the verb, then an object pronoun (me, you, him, her, it, us, them) or a noun is placed before the infinitive form. / want him/John to help me (=He should help me) hut: I want to help (= I should help ):

¦ verb + object + 'to be' is used after: expect/think/believe/suppose/ consider/find/know/declare. / consider him (to be) a clever man;
¦ verb + object + passive infinitive is used after: order/command/ ask for/allow. The manager ordered the cargo (to be) insured. He asked for the cases (to be) loaded today;
¦ verb + preposition + object + to-infinitive is used after: rely on/ count upon/wait for. / rely on you to do it in time.
