dubious to / dubious about #1 (permalink) Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:29 am   dubious to / dubious about
 

Hi,

dubious to/about...
I am wondering that which one is correct in this sentence.

'I am dubious to/about this fact.'

When I looked it up in an online dictionary,
I found out that the adjective 'dubious' was used with 'about'.

Is it wrong to use 'to' after dubious?

Please answer me!
Thanks.

I'd say that "dubious about" is correct, and "dubious to" is wrong.
