The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
I will spend / my rest of remaining / life in my / native village.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. my rest of remaining.
- The error lies in the option 1 due to the wrong usage of phrase 'my rest of remaining'.
- 'Rest' and 'remaining' are synonymous and mean the remaining part of something. Using them together is incorrect.
- The sentence can be corrected by using 'the rest of my life' or 'my remaining'.
The correct sentence will be:-
"I will spend the rest of my life in my native village."
"I will spend my remaining life in my native village."
Hence, the correct answer is Option 1 i.e. my rest of remaining.
