🔒 Closed Is it correct to say "We hope you don't mind us asking about this situation"?

[plhbg1]

No. It should be: “We hope you don’t mind our asking about this situation.”

The word “asking” is a gerund, which is treated as a noun. So what we are hoping about or minding is not “us,” but “our asking,” which is a possession of “us,” not “us” ourselves.
