[Grammar] Omission of "that"

[hkgoddess]

Someone posted a question about the following sentence:
"I find this garden is beautiful." It was considered wrong since 'is' should be taken out.
However, he put forward an argument for his case:
I find (that) this garden is beautiful.

My question is: Can 'that' be omitted in the above sentence? Any grammatical reason?:-?

I know that the 'that' in 'that clause' can sometimes be omitted when a noun follows 'that'. Is that correct?

I tried to find the answer from grammar books but alas...

I would appreciate very much if someone could enlightened me on this. Thank you.

Hello!

Sometimes you can remove "that" before a noun or pronoun. For example: Jeff said (that) he would visit his brother in the hospital.

Hope this helps!

I don't think your original sentence was incorrect. 'Is' can be omitted, but having it there does not make it incorrect.

The 'someone' was you, and you were not told that it was incorrect - https://www.usingenglish.com/forum/...s/189333-can-omitted-sentence.html#post975306
