✅ (Not Related) Do you approve these English Sentences?

So in my English Grammar Class we were learning English Grammar There were some rules presented like prepositions for certain words accused of charged with listen to So after the word Teacher said we Always use "of" with Charge we use "with" with listen we go with "to" None of this sound right to me. I made some sentences like " I was accused with him of robbery" " I was charged by the police" " I am listen from my ear" are these sentence correct, The class really thought I am making blunders at each sentence and they were laughing my teacher too. He said "please don't learn English Grammar your local Pakistani blog post writers hear some foreigners" So this is the context now I want you to approve or reject my sentences by reactions or messages so that I can share it in with my class tomorrow if I was not wrong.

Is this sentence with an acceptable structure?
I Was accused with him of Robbery
I Was accused with him of Robbery
Is this sentence with an acceptable structure?
I was charged by the police
I was charged by the police
are these sentences with an acceptable structure or which one isn't?
I listen with my ear
I listen with my ear
I listen from my phone speaker
I listen from my phone speaker
I made these sentences to show that these rules are not flexible and are limited in use also that they are not really something of consideration if the way you structure your sentence, sound sensible.

"of robbery" comes with the verb, it should be next to it ok sounds ok the bigger mystery is why in world you're asking this on a c# server listen from is a bit weird though listen to the sounds coming from sounds better

I wanted to prove that with "listen" it doesn't necessitates to have a "to" after, the example does sound weird for that

well if you're going to use a subject after it, I think it would be required if used without a subject, you don't need the to
