Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Is Savita joining us for lunch today?
- The original sentence contains a double use of the verb "is".
- In English, when forming a question using the auxiliary verb "is," it is not correct to repeat the verb "is" after the subject "Savita."
- Thus, the correct sentence should be the one without the repetition of "is" after the subject "Savita."
The correct form of the question is: Is Savita joining us for lunch today?
