Which sentence is right why do you hold on to that bitterness or why do you hold onto that bitterness?
HannaHong
The first alternative "... hold on to ..." is better for several reasons:
1. The verb is basically "to hold on" - even though it's usually "to" something
2. The word "onto" usually refers to a destination for movement (no movement in this sentence)
3. We could also say, "Why do you hold on, despite her kindness, to that bitterness?"
