Identify the segment in the sentence which contains the grammatical error.

I am fastly excited and really looking forward to the trip.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. I am fastly.

  1. The error lies in option 4 because of the wrong use of "Adverb".
  2. We need to replace "Fastly" with "Fast" for making the statement grammatically correct.

Grammatical concept:- 

  • The adverb "Fast" is used to show the speed of something.
  • The adverb "very" which means "extremely; in a high degree" will suit the given statement here.
  • The chosen option contains the Grammatical Error hence, it will be the correct choice.

Correct Sentence:-

I am very excited and really looking forward to the trip.
