You want to give you my suggestion for an electronic device, so I suggest you

[dorax]

"You want to give you my suggestion for an electronic device, so I suggest you a computer. A computer is very useful in your homework and you can do some practice with it. I think that it is a good idea but it is a bit expensive so you must think about it well before you buy one."
Are the above sentences correct?
1. After "want" should we put "me"?
2. Can we put the verb "suggest" in Present Continuous?
3. Should we put "will be" instead of "is"?
4. Is "in" right or "with" is the correct word?
5. "with it" or "on it" is the right one?
5. Is "well" correct or should we put "twice"?

Are the above sentences correct?
1. After "want" should we put "me"? Yes.
2. Can we put the verb "suggest" in Present Continuous? You need 'I suggest (that) you buy...'
3. Should we put "will be" instead of "is"? Yes.
4. Is "in" right or "with" is the correct word? Use 'for (doing)'
5. "with it" or "on it" is the right one?
5. Is "well" correct or should we put "twice"? Use 'seriously'.

[Matthew Wai]

People say 'on a computer', so I think 'on it' is correct.

 

[emsr2d2]

I'd use "on it" but "with it" is understandable.

2. Can we put the verb "suggest" in Present Continuous?You need 'I suggest (that) you buy...'

So, the verb "suggest" can't be put in Present Continuous. About its syntax, should be followed by a personal pronoun and a main verb e.g. I suggest you buy..., I suggest you go...? Can't be followed only by a noun e.g. I suggest you a computer..., I suggest you that book...?

 

[Matthew Wai]

I suggest that book to you.

 

[dorax]

Can't be followed only by a noun e.g. I suggest you a computer..., I suggest you that book...?

When it is followed by a noun it should always have the following form: I suggest this computer to you..., I suggest that book to you...?Right?

Perhaps:

You want me to give you a suggestion on what type of electronic device to get, so I suggest that you buy a computer.

You can use well before you buy one. Do you know what it means?

Please do not capitalize verb tenses.

You can use well before you buy one. Do you know what it means? Can you tell me in order to be sure?

Please do not capitalize verb tenses. I thought that this was correct; I have found them capitalized in all grammar books.

The phrase "well before" you do something means to have time to spare. In other words, take your time to be sure.

 

[Tarheel]

Capitalize the first word of every sentence, the pronoun "I" and proper nouns.

 

[Matthew Wai]

Verb tenses are not proper nouns, so I wonder why the OP said in post #11 that they were capitalized in grammar books.

When it is followed by a noun it should always have the following form: I suggest this computer to you..., I suggest that book to you...?Right?

I would use 'recommend' instead of 'suggest' in this construction.
