Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains an error.
She is in an hurry to meet her brother.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. an hurry.
- The article "an" is used before words that begin with a vowel sound, while "a" is used before words that begin with a consonant sound.
- In this case, "hurry" begins with a consonant sound, so it should be preceded by "a," not "an."
- Hence, the correct sentence will be: "She is in a hurry to meet her brother."
