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.
