In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.
Millions of Jews lost (A)/ their kith and kin (B)/ in Hitler concentration camps. (C)/ No error (D)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option C i.e. in Hitler concentration camps.
The error lies in part C of the statement because of the wrong use of the Possessive case.
Concept-
- We need to replace "Hitler" with "Hitler's" for making the statement grammatically correct.
- As there is a noun after Hitler in the statement we need to show a relation of that noun with Hitler.
- For showing relation we use an apostrophe ('s) so in the statement, we need to use this.
The correct sentence will be-
Millions of Jews lost their kith and kin in Hitler concentration camps.
