Common Errors
Directions:
Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the number of that part with error as your answer. If there is no error, mark (d). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.)
All the furnitures have been (a)/ sent to the new house (b)/ located in a village. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (a)
The noun 'furniture' is a mass noun that is always singular and takes no 's' after it.
Satyajit Ray, who conceived, co-authored (a)/ and directed a number of good films, was (b)/ one of India's most talented film-maker. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (c)
Satyajit Ray was one of India's most talented 'film-makers'. That is, he was one out of the many talented 'film-makers'.
As he had taken only a few sips (a)/ there was still little water (b)/ left in the glass. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (b)
'Some' should be used before 'water' in place of 'little'. The meaning of 'little' is 'practically nil' which wouldn't go with 'still' in the sentence.
He was fascinated by insects (a)/ and the more he studied their habits (b)/ greater was his fascination. (c)/ No error (d)
Answer: (c)
In 'the more...the greater' kind of sentences, where two comparatives are used in this form, the article 'the' has to appear before both the comparative forms.
My brother-in-laws (a)/ who live in Bombay (b)/ have come to stay with us. (c)/No error (d)
Answer: (a)
The plural of 'brother-in law' is 'brothers-in-law'. When a compound noun is written as two or more separate words with hyphen(s), the first part is generally made plural; other examples: passers-by, editors-in-chief, runners-up.
