      Rebecca, I've got a question about sentence #1. What if I DON'T mention the objective pronoun right after the verb?
      For example, I called later that night TO MY FRIEND. So now, in this case, I do need to use the preposition TO because the objective pronoun doesn't come right after the verb, isn't that right?!
      EDIT: I don't get why ABOUT can't be used with the verb to discuss.
      I got the idea, you mentioned a noun, the project. But what if, after the verb I mention a specific subject?
      For example, "We discussed ABOUT the party" sounds better than _We discussed the party._
      Am I seeing things wrongly?

    I 'm from Ethiopia. I taught English for six years. I like Rebecca's lesson very much. Interesting! As she said some verbs do not normally take a preposition after them because they have the meaning of the preposition within themselves. However, there are exceptions, for instance, the word discussion (n.) takes a preposition (about).

    I watched a lot of videos which were walking about prepositions in English, but believe me I didn't understand even a little bit till I found this amazing tutor, I am in fond of her smiling while she is teaching. she makes me confident. thank you for your time I really appreciate it, i owe you one. but I have a request, would you please make a video about passive and active sound in present perfect.
