The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains an error.
He was / bad injured / in the / last match.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. bad injured.
The correct phrase should be "badly injured".
The adverb "badly" modifies the adjective "injured", whereas "bad" is an adjective and cannot directly modify the verb "injured" in this context.
Adverbs are used to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. Since "injured" is a verb, the adverb "badly" is required instead of the adjective "bad."
