English Language Learners Asked by Nina on January 26, 2021
Do we add for when we say seek?
Which of these is correct?
To seek something
Or…
To seek for something
I find both acceptable and would not edit either. “Seek for” is a construct similar to “look for” or “seek out”: the verb is active and is directed at the object by the preposition. Hence we can seek help, seek for help, look for help, seek out help. All are correct, being clear in meaning with no ambiguity.
