Question

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose ‘No error’.
In 1914 Enfield supplied enlarged numbers of (1)/ motorcycles to the British War Department and also won a (2)/ motorcycle contract for the Imperial Russian Government. (3)/ No Error (4)

A.

In 1914 Enfield supplied enlarged numbers of

B.

motorcycles to the British War Department and also won a

C.

motorcycle contract for the Imperial Russian Government.

D.

No Error

Correct option is A

The error lies in option (a).

Explanation:

  • The phrase enlarged numbers is incorrect because enlarge means to make bigger in size, not to indicate quantity in this context.
  • To describe a high quantity, we use large numbers or a large number.

Correct sentence (one correct form):

  • In 1914 Enfield supplied large numbers of motorcycles to the British War Department and also won a motorcycle contract for the Imperial Russian Government.

Grammatical rule (English):

  • Use adjective large for quantity (large number of), not “enlarged” which refers to size expansion.

व्याकरण नियम (Hindi):

  • मात्रा/संख्या बताने के लिए large number of प्रयोग होता है; “enlarged” का अर्थ आकार बढ़ाना होता है, संख्या नहीं।

So the correct answer is (a)
