SSC CGL Tier II English - 11/09/2019 • English • Q36

Identify the segment in the sentence, which contains the grammatical error.
The birth of a girl bring great joy to Neha’s family.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. bring great joy.

As the subject (the birth) is singular we need to use a singular verb.

So, we need to replace BRING with BRINGS for making the sentence grammatically correct.

The correct sentence will be-

The birth of a girl brings great joy to Neha’s family.
