Error correction exercise: The psychiatrist asuggested against allowing Mavis...

[Monica]

Hello, I need to spot the mistake in the following sentence:
"The psychiatrist asuggested against allowing Mavis to live with her family."
I know the mistake is "suggested" and could replace it with "advised" or "warned". I was simply wondering whether it would also be possible to say "argued against allowing..." Thank you

Hi Monica,

'Argued against' sounds fine.
