Back to paper

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

The teacher will / certainly help you / if you will / ask her

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct asnwer is option 4 i.e. if you will.

  • The use of "will" after "if" is not necessary.
  • In English, it is more common to use the simple present tense after "if" to indicate a future action.
  • Therefore, "if you will" can be corrected to "if you ask."

  • The corrected sentence would be "The teacher will certainly help you if you ask her."
