suggest/offer/propose an idea

Hello,
I was just told that we can't propose/suggest or offer ideas. Why not? That seems strange to me.

Gene93 That seems strange to me. To me, too. COCA gives me: proposed the idea - 45 suggested the idea - 26 offered the idea - 7 Those are pretty good figures, considering that I have limited the verb form and article.
