This entry was created in response to a student’s writing:
The study suggests educators to consider using social media as an educational tool.
This phrase: ‘suggest + ___ + to infinitive’ is not quite right here. Check the link https://ske.li/suggest_that_mdv to see how the verb ‘suggest’ is normally used in academic writing.
Also, the base form of the verb (the subjunctive) works well with “suggest” expressing future desires as an alternative to modal verbs. Check the link https://ske.li/suggest_subjunctive to see how it works.
