  • This type of question assesses your command of grammar, usage, and sentence structure.
  • It typically involves a sentence divided into parts (usually four), one of which contains an error.
  • Your task is to identify and mark the part with the error, or “No error” if the entire sentence is correct.

MCQ Examples:

  1. The manager appreciate (a), the hard work (b) of his employees (c), and promise (d) a bonus.

  2. Neither (a) him (b) nor (c) I (d) knew the answer.
    • Error: c (“I” should be “me” since “neither” implies two singular nouns)
  3. It was raining (a) heavily (b) when we left (c) the house (d).
    • Error: a (use “was raining heavily” as a single adverbial phrase)
