    Question

    Identify the error in the following sentence.
    We are assured of the fact that Siben might good be the best cook to prepare chicken curry for our lunch.

    A.

    good

    B.

    best

    C.

    might

    D.

    prepare

    Correct option is A


    Option (a) contains an error.
    · The correct phrase should be "might be the best," correcting the order of words for proper syntax.
    · The modal verb "might" should be followed by the base form of the verb "be," and then the adjective "good" to correctly modify the noun "cook."
    · The sentence should read "We are assured of the fact that Siben might be the best cook to prepare chicken curry for our lunch."
    Grammatical rule used: Adverb placement is crucial in maintaining the grammatical structure and meaning of a sentence. The adverb "good" should appropriately modify the verb "be," and its placement directly before "be" is the standard structure in English.
    Example: She could easily be the best dancer in the competition. (Here, "easily" correctly modifies "be").
