I am confused about the usages of "allow", "allow for" and "allow of". Suppose police
is examining the evidence related to a bank robbery:
- The evidence allows the possibility of an inside job.
- The evidence allows for the possibility of an inside job.
- The evidence allows of the possibility of an inside job.
I checked a number of dictionaries and google. It seems that the usages in my three sentences are understandable English. But what do native speakers on this forum think?
