### sense in the lessons

In everyday life an objection tells the reader that someone disagrees or does not want something to happen; in stories it often comes before an argument or a change of plan. In school it appears when pupils give reasons for and against an idea in debates and persuasive writing. Common phrases: «raise an objection», «have no objection», «over someone's objections» (it happened even though they disagreed), «any objections?».

### note

Countable noun: an objection, two objections. Verb form: object (stress on -JECT): «I object to that». Do not confuse with the noun «object» (stress on OB-), which means a thing. «Have no objection to + -ing»: «I have no objection to waiting». An objection is a reason against, not a fact; it can be right or wrong.
