   Hi, all!   
      
   In "Molly Moon Stops the World", by Georgia Byng, I read this:   
      
   -----Beginning of the citation-----   
   Molly wondered what Lucy could want her to do. She wanted to thank Lucy,   
   to tell her about New York, and to talk hypnotism with her. There was   
   one other big reason too.   
   ----- The end of the citation -----   
      
   So we have:   
   "to talk hypnotism with her"   
   "to talk about hypnotism with her"   
   "to talk of hypnotism with her"   
      
   The first variant I see for the first time. Is there something particular about   
    it, comparing with the other variants?   
      
   Bye, all!
