For the hyper-critical,"to boldly go where no man has gone before" should be "to go boldly…" It is good to be aware that inserting one or more words between "to" and a verb is not strictly speaking an error, and is often more expressive and graceful than moving the intervening words elsewhere; but so many people are offended by split infinitives that it is probably better to avoid them except when the alternatives sound strained and awkward.

对那些吹毛求疵的人来说，&to boldly go where no man has gone before&应为：&to go boldly…&。在介词&to&和动词之间插入一个或多个单词，严格说并没有什么错，而且往往比随意插入更优美、表达更充分，但很多人对分离不定式大为不满，认为除非更改会造成牵强附会和蹩脚，否则避免使用分离不定式可能会更好。
