The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains an error.
I had seen / her with her mother / in the cinema hall / yesterday.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. I had seen.
The past perfect tense had seen is used when referring to an action that was completed before another past action or time reference.
The usage of "saw" is correct because the action is directly linked to the specific time i.e. "yesterday", which means, saw is the correct choice for actions completed at a definite time in the past.
Simple Past: Subject + V2 + Object.
The correct sentence is- "I saw her with her mother in the cinema hall yesterday."
