please define rule (Question: 185901.1 )

use of about

Question:
DIRECTION: In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.
The police questioned me what I had seen.
Options:
A) No error
B) had seen
C) me what I
D) The police questioned
Solution:
Here, we have to add the preposition "About" before "what" because the prepositions cannot normally be left out after other verbs.

Then the sentence will be like:- The police questioned me about what I had seen. (NOT The police questioned me what I had seen.)


Thus, option C is correct.

Dear student
'Question about' is a phrasal verb which means
to ask someone about someone or something.
The rule has to do with the correct use of the
phrasal verb 'Question about.'
