Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.

A part of me don’t wanted you to go to the party.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e., don't wanted you.

  • The underlined part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature.
  • "Don't" is the contraction of "do not" and the subject "A part of me" is singular.
  • Therefore it should be "doesn't" to match with the singular subject.
  • The correct sentence would be "A part of me doesn't want you to go to the party."

Thus, the correct sentence is:

A part of me doesn’t want you to go to the party.
