SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 4

SSC CHSL - 27 Nov 2025 - Shift 3 • English • Q4

Identify Spot the error in the given sentence. Had I knew the answer, I would have raised my hand.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The sentence uses an inverted structure for a third conditional sentence, which implies a hypothetical situation in the past. The correct structure requires the past perfect tense (had + past participle) in the 'if' clause. The past participle of "knew" is "known". Therefore, the correct phrasing should be "Had I known the answer".
