Some verbs permit the omission of prepositions under various conditions. If there were a direct object, the prepositional form would have to be placed after it: <br /> <br />Please write me. <br />Please write me a letter. <br />Please write to me. <br />Please write a letter to me. <br /> <br /> <br />http://www.englishforums.com/English/WriteWriteDifference/nlnl/post.htmWed, 12 Jan 2005 16:44:41 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:67280Guest1http://www.englishforums.com/English/WriteWriteDifference/nlnl/post.htmhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-67280.xmlI always get confused when the 'to' should be used in such cases: <br />Why don't you write me? <br /> <br />vs <br />Why don't you write to me? <br /> <br />Thanks
