Sentence improvement – gerund with possessive: After 'object to', use a gerund with a possessive determiner ('to my watching') rather than object pronoun.

Given data

• Original: 'I hope you won't object to me watching while you work.'

Concept/Approach
The prepositional phrase 'object to' is followed by a gerund. Formal usage prefers a possessive before a gerund denoting the performer: 'my watching' rather than 'me watching'.

Improved sentence
'I hope you won't object to my watching while you work.'

Option analysis
'against me watching' changes the verb–preposition; 'me to watch' mis-forms the complement; 'No improvement' retains a less formal structure that many tests still mark as incorrect.
