SSC CGL 2024 PYQ — Question 16

SSC CGL - 09 Sep 2024 - Shift 3 • English • Q16

Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains an error.

I are dancing with my husband at my sister’s wedding.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. I are dancing.

  • The phrase "I are dancing" contains an error because the subject "I" requires the verb form "am" instead of "are."
  • In English, "I" is always paired with "am" in the present tense, while "are" is used with plural subjects or the pronouns "you," "we," and "they."
  • Therefore, the correct form is "I am dancing."
  • Also, the use of the present continuous tense is correct to indicate a planned activity.
