  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Lesson 313. The title of today's lesson

  • is \"Don't say discuss about. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. Discuss

  • already means to talk about or write about. So it is redundant. Remember

  • redundant means repeating. It is redundant to repeat \"about' after discuss.

  • So if you say discuss about it's like saying talk about about or write about

  • about. Since discuss already means talk about or write about another about is

  • not necessary. It is redundant. It's considered to be improper. So you

  • shouldn't do it. Although this is one that possibly some natives could make

  • this mistake. But you shouldn't do it. It's not considered good English or

  • proper English. So let's go on. So let's look at the first example here. They

  • discussed about safety at the meeting. No. You should simply say they discussed

  • safety at the meeting. You know safety probably in a company or something like

  • that. Make sure everybody is safe working in the company. So all right number two. He

  • discussed about the problems of marriage in his book. No. Here or you would say the

  • author discussed the problems of marriage in his book or the author wrote

  • about the problems of marriage in his book. Yeah. So that's the way you would

  • use it. Okay. However to be a little more confusing

  • though unfortunately just like English is sometimes, you can actually use about

  • after the noun discussion. So let's look at this note here. You can use about

  • after the no discussion. So you could say they are having a discussion about

  • funding the wall. Yeah. So somebody could be having a discussion about something.

  • So about is okay if it follows the noun discussion , but it should not follow the

  • verb discuss. Okay. Anyway, I hope that's clear. I hope you got it. Thank you for

  • your time. Bye-bye.
