Grammar question about the word suggest.?

Question

I know that after suggest we use -ing (I suggest doing)

But what if we follow the word with "you"? Which is correct and why:

I suggest you to study hard.
I suggest you study hard.
I suggest you studied hard.

Please answer, this is rather important :)

Answer 1

I suggest that you study hard. (This is a grammatically correct and idiomatic sentence in English.)

I suggest you study hard. (This is a grammatically correct and idiomatic sentence in English.)

I suggest that you should study hard. (This is a grammatically correct and idiomatic sentence in English.)

I suggest to you that you should study hard. (This is a grammatically correct and but unidiomatic sentence in English.There's nothing grammatically wrong with it, but it's rather formal.)



'I suggest you to study hard'. (This is grammatically wrong : 'suggest' doesn't take the infinitive 'to study'.)



'I suggest you studied hard'. (Grammatically wrong : 'I suggest' is here a recommendation about the future but 'you studied hard' is about the past.

Answer 2

i suggest you study hard.

studied is past tense. you could not suggest someone do somthing in the past. to means towards.

i went to the jym. i went towards the jym. they don't mean exactly the same thing but they both talk about direction.

to means towards.

too means also.

two means 2.

so if you are trying to use the words to, too or two interject the other word and see if it still make sense

Answer 3

I suggest you study hard.
