SSC CGL 2022 PYQ — Question 8

SSC CGL - 01 Dec 2022 - Shift 4 • English • Q8

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
Rehan and Ronit are / good friends and / it don’t matter to them / as to who is wealthier.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. it don’t matter to them.

  • The third segment, "it don't matter to them," contains a grammatical error.
  • The verb "don't" is incorrect as it is the contraction of "do not," which is plural in nature.
  • The correct verb in this context should be "doesn't," which is the contraction of "does not" and is singular in nature.

Therefore, the correct sentence is:

"Rehan and Ronit are good friends and it doesn't matter to them as to who is wealthier."
