Question

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose ‘No error’.
A key institution is the judiciary, especially the Supreme Court, with a widely remit and a wise legacy.

A.

especially the Supreme Court, with

B.

No error

C.

a widely remit and a wise legacy.

D.

A key institution is the judiciary,

Correct option is C

Option (c) contains an error.
Explanation: The word “widely” is an adverb, but it is incorrectly used to modify the noun “remit”. It should be an adjective, so the correct phrase is “a wide remit”.
Grammatical Rule Used:
· Adjectives modify nouns, adverbs modify verbs/adjectives/adverbs.
· Example: She has a wide range of interests.
Information Booster: Use adjectives before nouns – never use adverbs like “widely” before singular nouns directly.
