SSC GD Const (English) - 21 Feb 2024 - Shift 2 • English • Q19

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No error'.

Each and every one of them want to discuss the post production amount.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. them want to discuss.

"Them want to discuss" is the incorrect segment.

The verb "want" doesn't agree with the noun "Each and every one". 

"Each and every one" is considered a singular noun and thus the correct verb to use is "wants". 

"Each and every one of + Plural Noun + Singular Verb" is the correct format.

The correct sentence will be - Each and every one of them wants to discuss the post production amount.
