"objection to" 是名词短语,表示“对……的反对/异议/反对意见”。其中:
objection:名词,意为“反对;异议;反对理由”(a reason for disagreeing with or opposing something);

4、 the main/primary objection to:对……的主要反对理由
The main objection to the proposal is its high cost.

介词 "to" 的后续成分:"to" 是介词,因此后面必须接名词、代词或动名词(doing),不能接动词原形。

✅ 正确:I have an objection to going there.(我反对去那里。)
与动词短语 "object to" 的区别:
"objection to" 是名词短语(需搭配动词使用),而 "object to" 是动词短语(直接作谓语),含义相同但用法不同:
He objects to smoking in public.(他反对在公共场合吸烟。)
= He has an objection to smoking in public.
"objection to" 是描述“对某事物的反对意见”的常用短语,核心是通过介词 "to" 连接“反对的对象”,需注意后续接名词/动名词。常见搭配如 "have no objection to"(不反对)、"raise an objection to"(提出异议)是日常和正式场合都高频使用的表达。
