Correct Answer:
C. to
When describing a marital relationship, the correct preposition to use is 'to'. The phrase 'married to' indicates the person with whom one has entered into matrimony.
- A. 'with' is incorrect. While 'with' can imply accompaniment, 'married with' is not the standard or grammatically correct construction for indicating a spouse.
- B. 'for' is incorrect. 'For' typically indicates purpose or duration, neither of which applies to the direct relationship of marriage.
- C. 'to' is correct. 'Married to' is the universally accepted and grammatically correct prepositional phrase in English to denote the person one is married to.
- D. 'after' is incorrect. 'After' indicates sequence in time and has no relevance to the marital relationship itself.
