SSC Stenographer - 08 Aug 2025 - Shift 2 • English • Q192

Find the incorrect part of the sentence:

She married with a doctor.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The verb marry is a transitive verb when used in the active voice, meaning it does not require a preposition like "with" or "to" to connect it to its object.

Incorrect: She married with a doctor.

Correct: She married a doctor.

Note: You only use a preposition with "marry" in the passive voice or as an adjective (e.g., "She is married to a doctor"). Even then, the correct preposition is "to," never "with."
