To avoid wrong and speak English more naturally, you should note the following points:<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_right_precepts_with_%E2%80%9CComplain%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Use the right precepts with &#8220;Complain&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">One of the most confusing points when using &#8220;Complain&#8221; is to choose the wrong precepts. In English, each magnetic world entails a different sense, so you need to pay special attention.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Complain About: Used to complain, complain about a problem, situation or something specific that makes you dissatisfied. This is the most common use.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><em>She complained about the noise. (She complained about the noise.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><em>They Complained About The Poor Service. (They complain about poor service.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Complain of: often used when talking about symptoms, health status that someone is feeling uncomfortable or painful.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">He Complained of A Headache. (He complained about headaches.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Many Elderly People Complain of Back Pain. (Many older people complain about back pain.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Complain to + people + about + Problem: When you want to tell whom you complain about what. This usage is very common in communication, especially to emphasize the object you are talking.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">She complained to the manager about the delay. (She complained to the manager about the delay.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">I Complained to My Neighbor About Their Loud Parties. (I complained to my neighbors about their noisy parties.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Thereby, you can see that choosing the right precious precepts is extremely important to avoid misunderstandings or wrong expressions.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_not_use_Complain_directly_with_objects_indicating_objects\"><\/span>Do not use Complain directly with objects indicating objects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A very common error of English learners is to ignore the preposition and use &#8220;Complain&#8221; directly with the object of indicator. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">For example, someone says: I Complain The Weather. This is the wrong way, because &#8220;Complain&#8221; never goes directly to the new language but always needs prepositions. The exact way of speaking must be: I Complain About The Weather. (I complain about the weather.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Similarly, do not say: She Complained the Food. Which must say: She Complained About The Food. (She complained about food.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Adding the right precepts, but extremely necessary to make your sentence both grammatically and naturally as native speakers.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_structure_%E2%80%9CComplain_that_clause%E2%80%9D_to_express_full_content\"><\/span>Use the structure &#8220;Complain that + clause&#8221; to express full content<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Besides the preposition structures, you can also use &#8220;Complain that + clause&#8221; to emphasize the specific content that someone complains. This is an important, especially useful structure when you need to express clearly and detailed.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>For example:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><em>He complaint that is the room was too small. (He complains that the room is too small.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"><em>She Complained That Nobody Helsed Her. (She complained that no one helped her.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This structure is often used in writing, press or in situations that need solemnity, to fully express complaints in a coherent way.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_not_abuse_Complain_to_avoid_creating_a_negative_feeling\"><\/span>Do not abuse Complain to avoid creating a negative feeling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Although &#8220;Complain&#8221; is a very popular word, it is also easy to make the saying of negative nuances, especially in a professional working environment or when you want to keep sympathy. Therefore, you should not abuse but consider replacing with more gentle, neutral expressions such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Express Concern (expressing concern)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Raise the Issue (raising the problem)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">mention (mentioned)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">For example, instead of saying: He Complained About The Schedule.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">You can say: He expreded concern about the schedule. (He expressed concern about the schedule.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This will help you communicate more skillfully, avoid impressing yourself as a person who complains.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/external-content.duckduckgo.com\/iu\/?u=https:\/\/vnmedia2.monkeyuni.net\/upload\/web\/img\/complain-di-voi-gioi-tu-gi-3.jpg\" alt=\"Need to use Complain in accordance with each case (Photo: Internet collection)\" width=\"100%\"><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_applications_on_the_Complain\"><\/span>What are the applications on the Complain?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">To be able to better understand the Complain structure + what prepositions mentioned above, here are some exercises for your reference and practice:<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Exercise_1_Fill_the_appropriate_prepositions\"><\/span>Exercise 1: Fill the appropriate prepositions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">She Often Complains _______ The Weather When It Rains.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">He Complained ________ A HADACHE and LEFT EARLY.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">The customer Complained ________ The manager ________ The Rude Staff.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Many people Complain ________ Back paint after working long hours.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">I HAD TO Complain ________ The Hotel Staff ________ The Dirty Room.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Answer:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">About<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">of<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">big &#8211;
