I brought up an issue with my teeth to a dentist but he condoned it. I am really upset with him.


are these sentences correct?

  

Top answer

You bring up an issue with someone, not to them. "condoned" may be the wrong verb -- or, at least, it is unclear what he condoned, so the sentence as a whole appears to make little sense.

I don't think so.

condone ~ tolerate, excuse, accept, forgive

Why would that upset anyone?
