Ignore के बाद noun या -ing form आता है, “to answer” जैसी to-infinitive रचना नहीं।
Not natural: He ignored about the warning.
Better: He ignored the warning.
Ignore takes a direct object, so you do not need “about” before the thing ignored.

Learner tip
Use ignore directly before the person or thing: “ignore the call,” not “ignore about the call.”
Ignore के तुरंत बाद व्यक्ति या चीज़ रखें: “ignore the call” कहें, “ignore about the call” नहीं।
