I Believed - The Autobiography of a Former British Communist

I think the problem here comes from the verb, believe. One can say, "I believe him to be honest." But, when you say "I believe him to arrive tomorrow," I believe that most native speakers would find that awkward, even if grammatically correct. The above two sentences are all grammatically correct as there is no particular reason to specify any tense for to tell the truth and to see. Note: When you want to use "believe" in past tense, just add “d”. The "d" is underlined and in bold letters above.

The Bachelors took the song to the No. 2 spot in the UK; [28] also peaked at No. 33 on the U.S. Hot 100 [29] I think because "believe" is a transitive verb that requires an object in this case. It gets the object "him" but the phrase "to arrive tomorrow" does not conform to general pattern we are used to hearing. It sounds almost too formal or archaic, like "I wish him to wake up now." It is an unusual choice for an OC.

Answer

I have come to realize my opinion is not plausible at all in resolving the problem and very ridiculous even to me, so I've come to decide to edit it. Anyway, give me one more chance to let me elucidate it based on my second thought. I think it is deeply associated with the tense problem related to "to infinitive", because If we were saying "She believes him to arrive tomorrow", we couldn't exactly fix the tense of the sentence at some point. Thereby, it can mean either "She believes he would arrive tomorrow" or "She believes he will arrive tomorrow". It can be meant for the formar if she has already been told in the past directly by him or someone else that he will arrive tomorrow, and therefore she still believes it is true that he would arrive tomorrow. In this way, I am sure that active verbs cannot be used in such ways only if a sentence cannot fix tense.

I can feel a kind of, what you may call, "epic mood" in Red Fang's music and i believe it could depend on where you come from. Specifically, this paper notes research that shows that English almost exclusively uses" believe [ obj.] [ inf.]" for stative verbs or perfective ones (i.e., "I believe her to have arrived yesterday"). There are exceptions and even their example of a "mistake"
