Is "discuss the question" a valid collocation?
PolylingualAnilingus
The teachers in my school are in disagreement about this.
Some say that you cannot discuss questions. You can discuss topics, issues, etc. But that's not a collocation, and instead, we should use "answer the question" or "talk about the question".
Others say it sounds fine and use it in class.
How do you feel? Does the instruction "discuss the following questions" sound natural?
