Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The original sentence is: "The manager discussed on the issue in detail."
Grammar Rule: The verb "discuss" is a transitive verb. Transitive verbs act directly upon an object without the need for a preposition like "on" or "about."
Error: Adding "on" or "about" after "discuss" is a common redundancy error.
Correction: Simply saying "discussed the issue" makes the sentence grammatically correct and concise.
