    Question

    Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose ‘No error’.
    I am thirty-two years old and my sister are fifteen.

    A.

    No error

    B.

    years old and

    C.

    I am thirty-two

    D.

    my sister are fifteen.

    Correct option is D


    Option (d) contains an error.
    Explanation: The subject "my sister" is singular and requires a singular verb. The verb "are" is plural and incorrectly used here. The correct sentence should be: “My sister is fifteen.”
    · Grammatical Rule Used:
    · Subject-Verb Agreement – A singular subject must be followed by a singular verb. "Sister" is singular, so "is" is the correct verb form.
    · Explanation of the rule in Hindi:
    · जब subject एकवचन हो (जैसे "sister"), तो उसके साथ singular verb (जैसे "is") का प्रयोग होता है। "Are" बहुवचन के लिए होता है।
    Meanings of the options:
    · (a) No error – Sentence has an error, so this is incorrect.
    · Hindi: कोई त्रुटि नहीं – गलत विकल्प क्योंकि वाक्य में त्रुटि है।
    · (b) years old and – Correct phrase, shows age.
    · Hindi: साल का है और – सही उपयोग।
    · (c) I am thirty-two – Correct introductory clause.
    · Hindi: मैं बत्तीस साल का हूं – सही वाक्यांश।
    · (d) my sister are fifteen – Incorrect verb form.
    · Hindi: मेरी बहन पंद्रह साल की हैं – "are" की जगह "is" होना चाहिए।
