What is the infinitive of a compound verb?

For example:

What i know,that hareket is not a verb,so how could it be got infinitive ?

The verb in 'hareket etmek' is etmek,so the infinitive would be 'hareket et'
Zannitim

Correction pls

Quoting bod:

Infinitive and imperative form are same:
Hareket et!

like the others:

swear: yemin etmek; yemin et
promise: söz vermek; söz ver
