Question

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose ‘No error’.
I want all the (1)/ workers to join (2)/ the immediately meeting. (3)/ No error (4)

A.

the immediately meeting.

B.

No error

C.

workers to join

D.

I want all the

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
Explanation:
The word “immediately” is an adverb, but it is incorrectly used to modify a noun ("meeting"). Nouns should be modified by adjectives, not adverbs. The correct adjective form is “immediate”, not “immediately”.
Correct sentence:
“I want all the workers to join the immediate meeting.”
Grammatical rule used:
Adjectives modify nouns, whereas adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
Here, "meeting" is a noun, so it should be preceded by an adjective.
Example:
· Incorrect: I attended the quickly seminar.
· Correct: I attended the quick seminar.
Information Booster:
Words ending in “-ly” are mostly adverbs, but some adjectives like friendly, elderly also end in “-ly” (exceptions).
