Parts of the following sentence are given as options. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
The plant will die unless you will water it every day
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. you will water.
- In conditional sentences, especially those with "unless," we use the simple present tense for the condition. The auxiliary "will" is not used in this type of conditional statement.
- The corrected sentence should read "The plant will die unless you water it every day," which correctly uses the simple present tense for the condition.
