SSC Stenographer 2025 PYQ — Question 191

SSC Stenographer - 07 Aug 2025 - Shift 2 • English • Q191

Identify the error in the sentence.

She adopted a honest approach to resolving the issue

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The sentence incorrectly uses the article "a" before the word "honest".

Although "honest" begins with the consonant "h," the "h" is silent. The word starts with a vowel sound.

In English, article "an" must be used before words that begin with a vowel sound.

Correct Sentence:

She adopted an honest approach to resolving the issue.
