Before we begin the subject we will learn from now on, let's look at these two prayers together:
his fact having apologized to me shows you're a polite boy.
the fact that he having apologized to me shows you're a polite boy.
Now, a question arises: which of the two would be correct when it comes to formal language, the one we have already studied? To remember it, access the text: Learning about formal language and informal language.
Believe that the second prayer is correct, as much as it seems to you a little strange. Know that it's normal for you to be a little strange, because usually the way we use it is the first one. So, so that we are well informed about why this statement is made, pay attention:
Grammar is defined by different characteristics
When we say “his”, we have the meeting of two elements: the personal pronoun of the straight case “he” + the preposition “of”. Therefore, when we analyze the subject of both clauses, we find that it is “he”. Thus, according to what Grammar tells us, the subject can never be accompanied by a preposition, since this only accompanies the predicate. For you to understand better, understand:
I need of your affection. We have the predicate “of your affection” which, correctly, appears accompanied by the preposition “of”.
So, now that you have discovered the cause of this occurrence, always try to use the proper way, otherwise will be committing any "deviation" that may cause damage to this beautiful language that we speak - the Language Portuguese.
Let's see other examples?
