SSC CHSL - 2 June 2022 - Shift 2 • English • Q2

Back to paper

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.

Going to the weekly market / in every Tuesday / is a ritual that has been followed / by generations in my family.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3. i.e. in every Tuesday.

  • The segment that contains a grammatical error is "in every Tuesday".
  • The error is that "in" should be removed before "every Tuesday."
  • The preposition "in" is not needed in this context, and it makes the sentence grammatically incorrect.
  • The correct way to express the idea is to use "every Tuesday" as an adverbial phrase to modify "Going to the weekly market."

The correct sentence would be: Going to the weekly market every Tuesday is a ritual that has been followed by generations in my family.
