Need + infinitive ==> obligation
Need + ing ==> meaning a passive form

Complete these sentences with the verb need + ? .

1- Why are you leaving now ? You don't need ---------(go) yet, do you ?
2- The grass is very long : it needs -----------(cut)
3- She isn't able to look after herself : she needs ----------------(look) after.
4- The windows are dirty. They need ------------(clean)
5- You don't need ---------(iron) that shirt. It doesn't need-------(iron)

Hello Joy
Merci pour ce retour sur "need" !
1- Why are you leaving now ? You don't need to go yet, do you ?
2- The grass is very long : it needs cutting.
3- She isn't able to look after herself : she needs looking after.
4- The windows are dirty. They need cleaning.
5- You don't need to iron that shirt. It doesn't need ironing.

Cet exercice me permet de soulever une question pour nos professeurs.
To need + gerund = To need + passive infinitive.
Une de ces deux formes est-elle privilégiée, soit à l'oral ou à l'écrit.
Tu vois, Joy, à partir d'un petit exo......
Bonne journée à toutes et tous,
Marie

Tu as tout à fait raison Marie, les 2 formes s'emploient.
J'ai simplement proposé cet exercice pour bien voir la différence entre l'emploi du gérondif et de l'infinitif
