Americans do not object ____ by their first names.
Created: 2 days ago
A
my calling them
B
to my calling them
C
been called
D
me calling them
সঠিক উত্তর হলো – খ) to my calling them.
Complete sentence: Americans do not object to my calling them by their first names.
• Verb ‘object’ সাধারণত to + gerund (-ing form) এর সাথে ব্যবহার হয়।
- “object” verb-এর পর to + noun/gerund.
- “calling” হলো gerund (verb-এর noun রূপ)।
- তাই সঠিক গঠন: object to my calling them.
অন্যান্য অপশন ভুল:
ক) my calling them
→ “object” এর পরে to প্রয়োজন।
গ) been called
→ passive voice, কিন্তু এখানে gerund দরকার।
ঘ) me calling them
→ grammatically “to” ছাড়া ভুল।
