1.Who would you recommend I talk with?
Shouldn't it be: Who would you recommend I should/would talk with?
I would recommend you should/would talk with somebody.

the answer to 1 question is:
2. I recommend you should/would talk with X.
3. I would recommend you talk with X.
4. I would recommended you should/would talk to X.

many thanks

1.'that' is assumed: Who would you recommend that I talk with?

2 (using 'should' but not 'would') and 3 are both appropriate answers.

Why not:
3.I would recommend you to talk with X.
instead of:
: I would recommend you talk with X.?
= is the last sentence works gramatically similar like (without : 'to'):
I made you talk with X.?

[Beeesneees]

Both mean the same.

Neither mean 'I made you talk with...'

I would recommend you talk with X.?
'talk' in this question is a verb, not a noun, right?
why is there 'talk' without 'to', 'to talk'?
is it a rule after: recommend and object-you?
many thanks

[Beeesneees]

It's not just with 'recommend' and it's not just with 'you'. It follows standard rules for a number of verbs. Look at these:
I suggest we run to the shops before they close.
I hope they leave us alone in future.

Hi Saneta,

'Recommend ' is one of those verbs where you can use the infinitive, the -ing form and a that-clause. In the last example the word 'that' is often omitted as in your example:

[Saneta]

Hi, Mr Alan so :'that' can be omitted and should be in the following place:

I would recommend that you talk with X.?

thanks

[Alan]

Yes, you can omit 'that' but if you use 'that', it should go where you have put it.
