| comment | In this sentence the preposition is omitted that collocates with the verb ‘pay’. After the verb ‘pay’ that means ‘to give money in order to buy something’ we can use two prepositions: (1) ‘by’ (Will you be paying by cash, cheque, or credit card?); and (2) ‘with’ (I’d like to pay with my card.). |
