Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. He go to school every day
Error concept: Incorrect verb form in simple present tense.
What is wrong: The verb “go” does not agree with the singular subject “He” in simple present tense.
Grammatical concept: For third-person singular subjects (he, she, it), the verb in simple present takes -s or -es.
Incorrectness of the concept in context: Using go instead of goes makes the sentence grammatically incorrect.
