Does the following sentence sound natural? "I’m not comfortable about changing
our product without clear reasons". I want to create some practical sentences
starting from "I'm not comfortable with..."
Your sentence doesn't sound natural to me...
It should read: "I'm not comfortable ABOUT changing a product without clear reasons."
You could say:
I'm not comfortable 'with' the new product.
So:
I'm not comfortable 'with' the direction the company is taking.
I'm not comfortable with the new CEO.
But:
I'm not comfortable 'about' firing so many employees.
I'm not comfortable 'about' developing so many new products at the same.
time.
It's better to use with+a thing (a noun)
It's better to use about+an action (a verb)
I cannot promise that this is always the case; and I can't guarantee that it is a fixed 'rule', but it seems to me that this is the general usage of these two words, in this structure. 🙂
