    Find the incorrect part of the sentence: She married with a doctor.
    Question

    Find the incorrect part of the sentence:
    She married with a doctor.

    A.

    with a doctor

    B.

    with

    C.

    She married

    D.

    No error

    Correct option is A

    Option (a) contains an error.
    Detailed explanation: The verb marry is a transitive verb and doesn’t take the preposition “with” in standard English when used in the active voice. Correct usage: “She married a doctor.”
    Grammatical rule used: Transitive verb “marry” takes a direct object: S + married + O. Use “married to” only in passive/adjectival structures (e.g., She is married to a doctor).
    Example:
    • Correct (active): She married a doctor.
    • Correct (linking/adjectival): She is married to a doctor.
    Information booster / exceptions:
    • In certain dialects/informal speech, “marry with” occurs, but for exams/standard usage, avoid “with” after marry in active constructions.
