    Question

    Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No error'. No one may deny that Angelina was a devoted wife and mother.

    A.

    No one may deny

    B.

    that Angelina was a

    C.

    devoted wife and mother.

    D.

    No error

    Correct option is A

    Option (a) contains an error.
    · Explanation: The phrase "No one may deny" is inappropriate here. Since the statement reflects a strong certainty about a past fact, "can" is more appropriate than "may." Therefore, "No one can deny" should be used instead of "No one may deny."
    · Grammatical Rule Used: "Can" is used for statements of factual certainty, whereas "may" indicates permission or possibility, which does not fit the context here.
    · Example: No one can deny the importance of education.
