Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that
contains a grammatical error. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your
answer.
I am having trouble / deciding in / a gift for them. / no error
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. deciding in.
- The second part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature.
- It contains an error of preposition. Preposition 'in' has been wrongfully used.
- The correct preposition to use after "deciding" is "on," not "in." We decide on something, not decide in something.
Thus, the corrected sentence would be:
I am having trouble deciding on a gift for them.
