Question

Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the sentence.
I always make sure to like and comment b̲y̲ ̲m̲y̲ ̲f̲r̲i̲e̲n̲d̲s̲’̲ ̲p̲o̲s̲t̲s̲.

A.

on my friends’ posts

B.

of my friends’ posts

C.

around my friends’ posts

D.

in my friends’ posts

Correct option is A

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (a) on my friends’ posts.
Explanation: The preposition “on” is correctly used with social media verbs such as “comment,” “like,” or “post.” The structure “comment on something” is standard English usage.
Grammatical Rule Used: Verbs like comment, depend, concentrate are typically followed by specific prepositions (comment on, depend on, etc.)
Example: She commented on his picture yesterday.
Meanings of the other options:
· (b) of my friends’ posts – incorrect preposition usage
· (c) around my friends’ posts – implies vicinity, not appropriate
· (d) in my friends’ posts – incorrect; implies being inside the post
