Find the incorrect part of the sentence:

The sceneries of Ooty was wonderful.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

In English grammar, scenery is an uncountable noun. Uncountable nouns do not have a plural form.

‘Scenery’ cannot be pluralized as ‘Sceneries’.

Correct: Scenery (Always singular)

Verb Agreement: Since "scenery" is singular, the verb must also be singular ("was" instead of "were").

Correct Sentence:

"The scenery of Ooty was wonderful.
