SSC CGL Tier II English - 12/09/2019 • English • Q80

Identify the segment in the sentence which contains the grammatical error from the given options. If there is no error, select No error.
Everything has became very expensive these days.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2, i.e. Everything has became.

  • Using 'has' designates an action which began in the past but continues into the present. In other words, the primary implication of 'has' is in present tense.
  • However, 'became' is in the past tense. So, the occurrence of both these words together doesn't make relevant sense as both their tenses contradict each other.
  • This is why this option contains the grammatical error.
